Friends, sunny skies, picnics, parades and so much more. My Country, my Town celebrating it's freedom. Bought by sacrifices I've never experienced. However, I am extremely grateful.<br /><br />"You can only protect your liberties in this world by protecting the other man's freedom. You can only be free if I am free."

(<a href="http://www.woodmarkchocolate.com/">www.woodmarkchocolate.com</a>) My husband and I had a great time meeting Kathy Chappini at her yummy store that is just brimming with unusual and hard to find chocolate and candy. After tasting Woodmark truffles, I had to call Paul Dederich and compliment him on the taste and quality of his candy. Next time I'm in Liverpool I will be sure to look for his store. </p><p>I would urge Brides and chocoholics to give them both a try.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5988874933658844276-7443322580869026481?l=www.whistlestop-florist.com%2Fblog'/></div>Whistlestop Floristhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06814314296172169823noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5988874933658844276.post-54675788745250057242009-02-02T18:04:00.002-05:002009-02-02T18:18:02.560-05:00<a href="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/Vday-flyer-788582.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 309px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/Vday-flyer-787291.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />This is a super opportunity!<br /><br />When you call or stop in for flowers your name will be placed in a drawing for two tickets to The Syracuse <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Symphony</span> on February 14<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">th</span>.

You can't plan them, they just happen. I call them "a moment in time" when events unfold in magical progression and you are swept along for a delightful journey.<br /><br />Bright and early on Tueusday, Kim, my husband John and I loaded the car with bundles of flowers, plates, dishes and candles and headed off to a photo shoot for Wellwed Magazine. We stopped at the <strong>Purple Hippo</strong> to pick up pink and black Petite Fours to go along with the placecard cookies from Gen Comfort at <strong>She Takes The Cake</strong>. We were seduced by the fresh baked aromas and treated ourselves to coffee and the best Lemon Blueberry Scone I have ever tasted.<br /><br />Good company and cheerful conversation made the hour long trip fly by. The beauty of the lush countryside had us giddy by the time we arrived in Aurora. Little did we know that the best was yet to come.<br /><br />We were greeted at the door of E B Morgan House by Lauren whose executive duties seemed to be making everyone welcome, informed and immediately comfortable. <strong>WellWed Magazine</strong> Editor Krista, her assistant Sara and intern Alison were already at work staging the scene. We were immediately wowed by the stunning decor. Chantiza Stern from <strong>Table Toppers of Rochester</strong> had draped the diningroom table with black and white floral linens which looked smashing with the miles of deep pink and mango silk draperies. Krista was clearly on her game as she bagan to layer the table with china, crystal stemware and flower arrangements. Photographer Alyson Beth started clicking away and the morning just flew by. But that is all I am going to reveal because I want to keep you in suspense until the next issue comes out.<br /><br />We had so much Fun! Kim and I have been creatively recharged and energized by our experience. So I want to add a grateful thank you to the talented ladies who will always be in my minds eye when I recall the memory of this perfect day.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5988874933658844276-6134919839955272290?l=www.whistlestop-florist.com%2Fblog'/></div>Whistlestop Floristhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06814314296172169823noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5988874933658844276.post-21047524115461790702008-07-11T17:53:00.002-04:002008-07-11T19:16:46.375-04:00<a href="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/Wasileski_1904-768322.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/Wasileski_1904-767942.jpg" border="0" /></a> The anticipation has been building since early spring and it has finally arrived! The new Fall and Winter issue of <strong>WellWed in New York</strong> is in release. The cover layout is drop dead gorgeous and the featured articles and photos have lots of great ideas for Brides.<br /><br />Kim designed a Fall bouquet which got a full page photo on page 77. We couldn't be prouder. The photo shoot was at The Bellhurst Castle in Canandiagua and the image was taken by Alyson Beth Photography at <a href="http://www.alysonbeth.com/">www.alysonbeth.com</a> .<br /><br />Kudos to Editor Krista Washburn for recognizing that Upstate New York has merits and abilities to showcase.<br /><br />Check out the new issue at <a href="http://www.wellwedmagazine.com/">www.wellwedmagazine.com</a>. Click on the WellWed in New York magazine picture and then click on the image of the new issue. I'm sure all the "Brides To Be" will want a copy from Barnes and Noble or Wegmans.<br /><br /><strong>And</strong> because the publishing world spins at a whirling rate, the spring/summer photo shoot is this upcoming week. So when the three weddings and a rehearsal dinner are done, Kim and I will take a deep breath and start brain storming.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">The above photo by </span><a href="http://www.laurelillie.com/"><span style="font-size:78%;">www.laurelillie.com</span></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5988874933658844276-2104752411546179070?l=www.whistlestop-florist.com%2Fblog'/></div>Whistlestop Floristhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06814314296172169823noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5988874933658844276.post-30252493267679944682008-06-13T11:22:00.002-04:002008-06-13T11:36:19.422-04:00<a href="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/bush1-735451.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/bush1-735446.jpg" border="0" /></a> Dancing with the stars (in their eyes) at the Lincklaen House in the lovely village of Cazenovia. It is a nice location for a destination wedding or a sunny summer luncheon. Mary Margaret and her staff are very accommodating. I like what she did with the maids bouquets in the mantle.<br /><br />By the way, the Lincklaen House has updated their decor with new window treatments and lighting by my friend Liz of Elizabeth Hill Intertiors. Take an afternoon to go shopping and have lunch in downtown Cazenovia.<br /><div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5988874933658844276-3025249326767994468?l=www.whistlestop-florist.com%2Fblog'/></div>Whistlestop Floristhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06814314296172169823noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5988874933658844276.post-38622193968621392172008-05-23T14:57:00.003-04:002008-05-23T15:16:37.381-04:00<a href="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/flag-j-788719.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/flag-j-788667.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><strong>Please set aside time this week to pray for the spiritual healing of our nation, wisdom for our leaders and <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">safety</span> for our soldiers fighting overseas.</strong></div><div><strong></strong> </div><div><em>It is, in a way, an odd thing to honor those who died in defense of our country, in defense of us, in wars afar away. The imagination plays a trick. We see these soldiers in our mind as old and wise. We see them as something like the Founding Fathers, grave and <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">grey haired</span>. But most of them were boys when they died, and they gave up two lives, the one they were living and the one they would have lived. When they died, they gave up their chance to be husbands and fathers and grandfathers. They gave up there chance to be revered old men. They gave up everything for our <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">country</span>, for us. And all we can do is remember.</em></div><div> Ronald Reagan</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5988874933658844276-3862219396862139217?l=www.whistlestop-florist.com%2Fblog'/></div>Whistlestop Floristhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06814314296172169823noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5988874933658844276.post-45550283387481029392008-05-07T15:51:00.002-04:002008-05-07T16:11:50.142-04:00<a href="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/details_4907-748920.JPG"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/details_4907-748359.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/IMG_5005-712847.JPG"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/IMG_5005-712322.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/IMG_9922-707803.JPG"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.whistlestop-florist.com/blog/uploaded_images/IMG_9922-707210.JPG" border="0" /></a>Julie and Jennifer from <strong>The Original Runner Company</strong> called Kim to say that <strong>The Big Idea with Donnie Deutsch</strong> is interviewing them on Sunday!.
