Sneak Peek......

   Yesterday when I went to town, I went to Horton's . I always ask to take pictures. No one was in the store but Mr. Horton. Some came through while I was there.  This window had an old dress from a prom . Prom is a spring event.
  I could not get a shot of this without reflections on the window. Pretty shade of pink.
 The fudge counter was filling up with the Horton's homemade fudges. They  had cappuccino, peanut butter/choco layered, maple, walnut, sugar free chocolate. They will have raspberry , dreamcicle, and a few more flavors on Saturday.
  There were umbrella displays. It rains in the spring.,,,hopefully not Saturday. Some cute bird dishes, napkins, and farm sweet farm, signs. You can see that Horton's is a hardware store from some of these shots.
 Another window display. Wire basket full of cups sitting on saucers. A tiny cup/saucer under a big glass cloche.
Mercury glass bottles with little letters spelling spring , held by tiny clothes pins. I bought a few things while I was there. I will go back on Saturday if I get a chance. I may ask my daughter Angie to go along with me.  I have many more photos to show. :):)
  I went to the grocery when I left Horton's. Got there and only a few others were in the store. Thursday is big sale day at Marsh. So maybe everyone will be there today . Ha, I loved having  the store pretty much to myself. I saved 30 dollars with my coupons , and gave a coupon to a couple to help them out. :)
  On my drive home, saw my sister Brenda , asked her out for lunch. Beat it home and made some chicken salad and we had a fun time. Today is my sister Jeanie's birthday, so I have to get busy. Going  to her house and give her a gift.  Hope your day is a happy one.  XO

    1. I will tell you tomorrow about today. :) I'll be going back to Horton's this weekend. It's fun to go there when no one else is there...I can look till my heart's content. The Horton's must trust me...they have left me in the store by myself. LOL Good thing I know someone is always watching. :):) Blessings, xoxo,Susie

  5. A very Happy Birthday Jeanie, Hope you've had a lovely day !
    I'm afraid if I lived closer I would be tempted to visit Hortons weekly.....if only to look through their windows :)

  6. Horton's looks like a bit more than a hardware store. I never saw fudge at my local hardware store and if I did I'd be leery of what it was made of.

    1. Hi Nonnie, So nice to hear from you. Hope you are doing well, and having some spring weather to enjoy. I thought that dress was probably knock-out when it was new. Blessings, xoxo,Susie

  10. Susie, what a pretty prom dress. It's so frilly with a pretty color of pink. The tea cups at Horton's caught my eye, I would have had to buy one - I'm really into tea cups lately. And that homemade fudge! It looks delicious, and the cappuccino one sounds delightful. Happy Birthday to your sister, Jeanie. The lunch you two shared sounds nice.

    love, ~Sheri
