I went to Horton's Christmas preview on Saturday. Here's that tempting fudge they make. I passed it up, but did have a sample of lemon bar and a two bite snicker doodle. They had some free tasty treats and cocoa for their customers. It was fun.
These pictures are last years...still not getting my photos, till I have just given up on for now.
I wanted to ask the Horton's where this old sleigh was, but my goodness they were so busy. Two lines waiting to check out. You would be surprised to see how many people get into that store.
I was hoping to see Cindy Bee, the bee lady from hilltop farm. She's a bee keeper, crafter, knitter, you name, she can do it, type of girl. I met her 3 years ago at Horton's. If you like bees check out her blog.
Well it's classmate brunch day. I need to get ready to meet up with my friends. I missed the last one. We may not have them through the worse months of winter. So I want to be sure to make it today.
Good wishes for all of you today. I have sunshine, Hope you do. XO
Susie,
ReplyDeleteLove Horton's. I bet it is so pretty in there at Christmas time. I had some of that fudge when I was down for a vintage market show a few summers ago and it was so delish. Have fun with our breakfast club.

Hi Kris, I had a fun time at the brunch..I guess they should call it breakfast really...cause that is what most order. I usually only eat a wheat toast with them. Today lots of health issues were talked about...too funny at times. We have to laugh or we'd be crying at times. xoxox,Susie
DeleteWhat a fun time to shop at that store! And I hope you have a wonderful morning with your friends! Sweet hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteHi Diane, I had a fun time this morning. One lady heard another talking about it being tax time and just about jumped out of her chair...she had forgotten and tomorrow is Vet's day , the offices may be closed. Well that was enough to get us all rolling with laughter. Next brunch will be near Christmas...I'd like to make everyone something for a gift..so I have to put on my thinking cap. LOL. It's probably too big my for head now...seems I have not been thinking.LOL Life is good. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteThat looks like a place that could jump start your enthusiasm for Christmas! Enjoy your day with friends.
ReplyDeleteNonnie, Just the smiles and laughter of people shopping and looking at things, makes it such fun. It's nice to be with happy people. Kind of rubs off. That is good. I think we could put glitter on anything and it would be more like Christmas. LOL. xoxo,Susie
DeleteHappy Monday, Susie. I fear the winter weather is making an early arrival this week for you. That cold front is headed our way, too! Enjoy brunch! xo Nellie
ReplyDeleteBrr Nellie, I better get some warm socks out. I was wanting to get a new warm wooly coat to shovel snow in. LOL. I think I am going to think of Spring. Bless you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteWhat would you do without Hortons? Enjoy your brunch...Cold blast coming..
ReplyDeleteMissy, You are so right girl...I love Horton's and it's something so very fun to look forward to in our small town. Oh I watched the weather this morning and I am not happy about an early arrival of winter. I am praying for all of us...to have a mild winter, not one like last year. xoxo,Susie
Deleteoh yummm lemon bars..fudge !!
ReplyDeleteOH MY I
would have to pass too..but love it..
the Holiday Christmas looks so fun..
I am going to get to some this year too.. hugs,Patty
Patty, I hope you do get to enjoy some fun Christmas craft shows or fairs. It's fun to get ideas too. xoxo,Susie
DeleteLEMON BARS...Holy Cow...I want one !
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, that movie where she thinks she is going with her daddy brings me to my knees every time I think of it or see it and I am crying right now and can barely see if i'm spelling words right.
BJ, That movie kills me. It is so good and like real when that girl cries for her dad. OOOO I do not want to think of it too long. I'll admit I am a big sentimental slob.:) Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteI so hope you enjoyed your brunch! The first hit of winter temps will be here by tomorrow. I do like cooler weather but I'm not in the mood the bitter cold & wind.
ReplyDeleteStay warm my friend!
xo
Pat
pat, I love cool weather much more than steaming hot stuff..But like you I am just not u for the cold stuff. xoxo,Susie
DeleteHope you made it to the classmates brunch! Sounds like fun - and Hortons sounds and looks like way too much temptation. LOL Bet it was cozy and festive!
ReplyDeleteJudy, I had a real nice time with all my gal pals. We talked about all our aches and pains and surgeries..Honestly I left there feeling pretty good. My time in Horton's was a good prelude to Christmas season. Bless you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteHi Susie, I hope that you had fun with your friends today. I love going to Christmas craft shows, we had a big one in your town last week and I forgot to take my camera. I did get some great ideas though:) I also follow Cindy, she is a sweetie pie.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely week.
Your blogging sister,
Connie :)
Hi Connie, I am glad you follow Cindy. She is a really nice person and so smart about her bees. I love going to fairs and crafts show...to get ideas even if I buy nothing. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteThis a coincidence. As I tuned into your blog I was drawn to the picture of the fudge while in fact I am eating fudge, very slowly, that I found in the back of the fridge that I bought on vacation a month and a half ago.
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of store is Horton's?
Hi Boston boy, That's funny about your fudge. Man you need some ice cream to snack on or popsicles. Bless your heart. I know you are not totally healed from your dental work. When you get all healed up and 100 percent ready for real food...you'll probably want steak.LOL. Horton's is basically a hardware store. They specialize in custom blinds and paint. They have a green house, sell plants old doors and windows. But about 4 times a year they have Artisan Markets and sell everything recycled , redone, or hand crafted. You would love the owners. The Horton family, mom ,dad, a son , a daughter and grandmother. Hope you are better tomorrow. Hello to Arlene. xoxo,Susie
DeleteSusie, I love it when you go to Horton's and share the experience with us. I always love to go over the photos and see the great things they are offering for the season.
ReplyDeletesending hugs...
Hi June, So nice of you to come by. I do love going to Horton's. They are a good family and kind to everyone. They had some wonderful gift ideas . I bought a few things, but I also get good ideas for making gifts. One day I am going to come home from there with one of those olive buckets..I just love looking at them. Blessings to you and your family, xoxo,Susie
DeleteSusie- I always look forward to your post about Horotons. They have such wonderful ideas there. I would love to see the place in person.
ReplyDeleteI hope the old sleigh is still around somewhere.
I am sure you had a good time with your friends at brunch today! xo Diana
It seems like having your classmates lunch would be most important during the harsh winter months. Do you skip them because the roads are not good for driving on in bad weather?
ReplyDeleteCarol, Yes, it gets slick and nasty around these parts and hey we are getting up there in age. LOL. There's a couple of the ladies here in town I could meet for just a lunch. I am thinking of doing that too. Because we could visit better actually. Blessings to you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteThey have candy at Horton's? Oh, I'd be the first in line haha. I'm so glad you got together for the classmate brunch day. I hope you had lots of fun catching up with everyone. I just saw one of my classmates today too at See's candy.
ReplyDeletelove,
~Sheri
Sheri, The Horton's make that fudge themselves. They have chocolate, Peanut Butter, Strawberry, snickers, red velvet, Maple, red raspberry too. Some sugarfree too. It is so tempting. xoxo,Susie
DeleteWhat a gorgeous shop! That fudge looks delicious. xoxo
ReplyDeleteThis shop is really a great place. It's mostly hardware, greenhouse plants and then there's all the little rooms of crafty things. The Horton Family are just amazing. Bless you, xoxo,Susie
