The Dust is Settling!
Minor renovations are underway this month as we remove the old chimney and open up the old brick (former alley access) wall behind our antique glass display case.
This will create new floor space and a new consultation area. Until then, there may be a little more noise and dust than normal floating around. It was time for some spring cleaning anyway :>
Wish us luck!

Magrath, AB Oct 2009: Global Warming does not seem to be working. Scientists promised us better weather and have failed miserably in their delivery this month. Luckily, they also predict that colder weather is also a sign of ‘Global Warming’, so we expect better weather soon. Meanwhile, I had to warm the car up and scrape the ice off all my windows this morning .. where are those toques we have on sale?
How can you help? Please consider keeping your cars running in the parking lot, as Global Warming does not seem to be working yet. p.s. I voted FOR global warming .. may it kick in soon.

Just in time for the ‘cooler weather’! What’s a toque? You are Canadian, eh? OK knit winter hats to you ‘mericans. We have a new shipment received with a great selection of winter warm ups. Prices from .99 small 1.99 med hats up to 6.99 for leather gloves.
BTW: this from wikipedia: “In Canada, toque, or tuque, is the common name for a knit winter hat, like a watch cap or stocking cap. The word is pronounced /ˈtjuːk/, whereas other kinds of toques are still pronounced /ˈtoʊk/ in Canada, as elsewhere. This usage was assimilated from Canadian French tuque much later, and is first attested in writing around 1870.”
