WTF News- November 7, 2014


Happy Friday

 

This year has flown by like no other that I can remember.  Everytime I get caught up on my "to do list" it seems as though I blink and I'm magically 2 months behind again.  It has been that way especially with turkeys this year.  I hope you all will forgive me for being later than normal on getting out the turkey info. 

 

By the way- for those of you interested in turkeys, somewhere around 3pm today is looking especially "fowl".

 

 

The weather looks much better and we will be back at the markets this weekend and remember that we are now on the 9 til noon schedule at BOTH markets
