Dear Editor,
We had an utterly super Easter weekend last week, thanks to business’s on Bowen. Baking supplies from the General Store (Cloud Nine gluten free flour, European Cultured unsalted butter...), The Ruddy (organic cream, milk, lemons), Alderwood Farms (sausage, bacon...), MacDonalds Farm and the Weismillers (fresh eggs), Artisan Eats (fresh bread), Cocoa West (71% organic dark chocolate chips), The Flower Shop (beautiful pansies in my window boxes), Bell O’cchio and the Knick Knack Nook (for all the table decorations), Sandy Logan (for helping minimize all the aches and pains so I could stand and bake for many hours).
Thank you, all.
PLUS, imagine my utter delight to be called by Cocoa West on Good Friday morning and being told I had won the monthly draw for a utterly fantastic Chocolate Mousse Cake. Like Wow! (I will not admit to the fact I have probably qualified for the draws every month since they started!) What an honour. Such an elegant treat for the senses to share with family and friends. Thank you, Thank you.
As a bonus, because I was in Artisan Square to pick up the cake, I got to visit the Flower Shop and get orchids and a lovely arrangement of spring flowers for the table (...husband says my attempt to beautify the house without actually cleaning it! But for me...they just seem to feed my soul). Thank you Caroline.
I wanted to write this note to say ‘thank you’ to Cocoa West for adding the crowning touch to Easter and realized I also needed to thank many, many people for helping make Easter a lovely time for my family. The cake was amazing.
Thank you,
Lynn Krukowski
