Good Bye and Good Luck to Cate
Never one to give up, Cate Davis has reached her goal to be a college graduate and just as we suspected she has gone off to the big city to make a success of herself. I first saw Cate dashing into the Frothy Monkey for her first life sustaining cup of coffee for the day. I commented on how determined she looked and what a cute belt she was wearing. Turns out "determined" was an understatement and she had made the belt herself - that morning. That was almost 3 years ago. Our customers have come to love her as much as we do. We wish her the best. Just live up to your potential old girl and the world is at your feet. Love and kisses.
PS Cate and Libby decided as a "last hurrah" they would paint memorable scenes on the door facing in the new shop. They each took a side and began work about a month ago. Naturally Cate finishied and Libby is still working on her side. Please stop by and see the results.

POTTERY BY THE POUND GOES NATIONAL
May 8th and 9th brought beautiful weather and lots of customers out to the country for the Annual Pottery-By-The-Pound Sale. People come from all over the state to participate but this year brought a special group of ladies from Tampa, Florida. They have relatives (Carla Ward ) in the area so they timed their trip to be here for PBP. One trip to the pottery was not enough. Before the sale ended Saturday afternoon, Brandi Bolick, Tori Piltz and Jaclyn Reed had visited us 4 times. We thought we had a great picture of them, but it was not to be.
Ladies, it was a pleasure. Please come back soon. In the meantime, what the heck did you do with all that pottery??

METHODIST CHILDREN'S HOME JELLY IS HERE ! ! !
For the past few years we have been lucky enough to carry Methodist Children's Home jelly. Jay Hinckley is a master at salsa, jelly and even raising ferns. So far this year we have strawberry preserves, blackberry jelly, mayhaw jelly and something new for us - pepper jelly- while supplies last. They are made at the OWL center from local fruit. A biscuit is not a real biscuit until you top it with some MCH delight. Betcha can't eat just one.
Don't forget the salsa. What could be better on a hot summer evening than a cold margarita and some MCH salsa and chips? If you have a good dip recipe to add to our collection, give us a call.

KENT AND HIS TRAINED FISH
Have relatives in for a summer visit? Have a house full of grandkids?
Need to entertain them? We have the perfect solution. Come visit Kent and feed the fish. Kent has some HUGE catfish that love to eat. He rings the bell and by the time he reaches waters edge there are some big fish just begging to be fed. They swirl and twirl and put on quite a show. They are usually followed by turtles as well as the occasional bream and bass in the mix.
Kent is seen here with two cuties from The Woodlands, Texas. They are Ava and Anna Claire Adam.

BIRDIE & FOWLER PLAN A VACATION
Birdie came back to the nest with a great idea. "It's summertime Fowler, we need to take a trip," she said. Where do birds go on vacation? The Canary Islands? No, Birdie thought they should visit Fowler's dad's nest, for Father's Day. As she started making plans for the trip, Fowler decided he would arrange the transportation; Birdie hats to fly long distances. Since there are so many good car deals now, Birdie couldn't wait to see what kind of fancy car he came up with. Well, she didn't have to wait long. Take a look. Kent had just finished putting the final touches on his "one-wheel flower extravaganza". Needless to say, Birdie and Fowler will be at the shop when you visit. Don't mention vacation
--it's a sore subject--AND ABSOLUTELY DON'T ASK IF SHE GOT A NEW "THUNDERBIRD" CONVERTIBLE.
