Very happy for the much needed rain that came our way today though it kept our customers home . . . Maybe they were watching the Pope's visit to Glasgow, Scotland. The turn-out was smaller than for the most recent papal visit and while I don't wish to belittle Catholics in any manner, I do have to wonder how many turned out for the Pope and how many for an appearance by Susan Boyle. We Subo fans are fanatics, as you well know . . . And sticking with the religious theme I am sorry to report that the spaghetti supper originally scheduled for Saturday evening at the Harris Street Church has been canceled. We were planning to attend. The event will be rescheduled in the spring according to the pastor . . . Got still more new product today that I will have to tell you about. For starters, there is a collection of 16-page children's books that retail for $9.95 each. These familiar tales are colorfully illustrated with original old-fashioned pictures which are sure to delight. My picture does not do them justice. (Click to enlarge.) And these shaped books aren't as small as they look. They average around 12 inches tall--some bigger, a few smaller. Three Little Pigs, Three Little Kittens, Hansel and Greta, and several others including A Visit to Santa Claus. Must be seen to be appreciated . . .
