Thanks

Hey guys, I know it's been awhile. I have some business to get to before I enthrall you with our updates:

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, to each and every one of you who has taken the time to check out Phony Balony. Whether its through this blog, the brand new website, Facebook or Twitter, we thank you. Regarding the website, our friends at Electron Spin really came through for us with an outstanding site. They're a new small business like us, so send them love by liking them here: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Electron-Spin-Solutions/136256279809930

As I write this post, I'm thinking of all the people on a daily basis who helped us give steam to this project. As I've said before, its harder than we thought it was going to be, and it's friends, family, co-workers and even strangers who have motivated us with their sincere belief in the concept.  Some of you know you've contributed, some of you don't. Your continued support for us and the business is appreciated.

I wish I could send you all candy and puppies and hugs. Well, maybe just the first two. I'm not really a hugger, high school ruined it. ("OH MY GOD!!! Its so crazy that I just saw all of you in this SAME hallway before LAST period! Lets hug about it, k guys?")

So its fall now. Which is awesome, from both a holiday and cooking standpoint. I like cold weather cooking, it's what I'm most comfortable with and best at. I wish I would have found the time this year to pickle and can things, but we're not leaving the harvest totally empty handed. I have a windowsill full of drying chili peppers, which looks pretty, and is exciting. I'm very much looking forward to Christmas, which is nothing new. (I actually cheered out loud yesterday when I saw the tree's up in the Bay. Twice.) We wont be doing anything as exciting as Holland this year, but its been a long busy year for us, so staying at home is something we're looking forward to.

Tomorrow, we'll be making the front of the house all spooky, I'm going to carve some pumpkins and work out my costumes for the weekend. Any idea's are welcome. I love Halloween, but am always kinda bummed that I work through all the fun stuff. Maybe next year I'll take it off so I can fulfill a lifelong dream of attending the Rocky Horror Picture Show in costume.

 It's mean to laugh at people's dreams, so please stop now.

Go ahead and laugh that I'm off to work though. I'd love to sit around entertaining you guys all day, but you can't blog without internet, and you cant internet without paying the bills. #comeoccupythebarplease
