This is a short one. I just finished a gruelling three-day show, and there is nothing but stewed turnip between my ears.

It seems people are understanding the value of buying local this year. I was worried sales would be down due to the current state of the economy; I've never been happier to be wrong.

To my customers, and to everyone who has decided to support local businesses: thank you. This is the way it's supposed to work.
