Today on National Lemonade Day - Give to Alex's Lemonade Stand

So I've been following Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation because I think it's brilliant, heartfelt and deeply moving. A little girl named Alex wanted to help other kids like her suffering from cancer so she literally opened a lemonade stand. She passed away at the age of 8 knowing she had helped other children like her with raising over 1 million dollars. This foundation is her legacy.

As its National Lemonade Day and the fact I am the Laughing Lemon I feel it my duty to share this with all my lemony fans and encourage you to give. Please support me in meeting my goal. All those who give will be entered into a draw to win a year's supply of lemon marmalade. As well, 100% of all sales made at the Fiddlehead Farmer's Market this Saturday will go to this cause.

Here's to making life sweet out of lemons!

My biggest fan!

So my friend Corinne called me last night and asked if she could put in an order for pick up this morning as she got off the ferry. She has a summer place further up the Coast and is expecting guests and wanted some fresh treats to share this weekend. She then proceeded to tell me this is how Savary Island Pie Company started. Locals on Savary made their weekend orders, drove by, picked them up and proceeded to their cottages. That grew to dropping orders in town which turned into their storefront and now distribution in Whole Foods - she had me thinking "Taya Hawes Omnimedia" was really going to happen :)! The pictures do not do justice on just how much she bought - which again got me thinking - I should do a "weekender" package. Ok more on that later. For now, I will send big blessings of appreciation to my biggest fan Corinne and her husband (who was really excited to introduce himself to our German B&B guests), their son Alexander who sported the same outfit as Dad, and little sister Livi who patiently waited in the car. Happy Lemony Weekend to the Wittstocks!
