Daisy Days

You may have heard that we got a bit of snow. Ok, quite a bit. Nevertheless, spring is going to arrive within weeks. So we have optimistically displayed our daisies. Bright colors are popping in ladies' sweats and children's tees while baby chicks are dancing in the windows with the new Byers Choice. It may be snowy outside, but in our store we're enjoying our daisy days.

February is Fantastic

Yes, February is fantastic. The holidays are mostly over, the weather tempts us with glimpses of spring, there's still enough snow for snowboarding and skiing, and you feel like you can finally breathe again.
With a weekend of beautiful weather, we've seen more of our four-legged friends. Hello Biscuit! Hello Ollie! Hello Mister! We still have fresh water in our doggie bowl - on the chillier days you'll find it just inside the door. And of course, help your pal to a doggie treat when you help yourself to a complimentary cup of hot coffee and ginger snaps.
This past weekend was The Dance Flurry. It was a big success this year with over 4,000 people. We've heard that some of you were dancing fools until 2am! Of course, it was also Valentine's Day. If you didn't stop in for a taste of hot fudge, we still have samples available today. Yum!
Finally, to celebrate President's week, we have a 25% Off special on Obama T-shirts!
See, February is fantastic. So don't let cabin fever get you down. Enjoy the outdoors, stroll broadway with a drink from Uncommons and a snack from Mrs. London's, and remember that Saratoga is a great place to live all year 'round.

Oh Fudge, It's Valentine's Day!

Stop in this Friday through Sunday and try a sample of Sundae's Best Hot Fudge. It's like Grandma's fudge brownies hot from the oven - an ouey-gooey, chocolate fantasy. Yeah, it's that good.

Chowderfest 2009 Photos

Thanks For Attending Chowderfest 2009

We served up more than a bowl of chowder this past Saturday during the annual Chowderfest. Thanks to you, our customers, we were able to donate $150.94 towards the expansion of the new Saratoga County Animal Shelter and a whopping 60lbs of dog/cat food and towels. We will continue the collection basket for wet or dry cat food and old towels to donate to the shelter. Anyone who drops off these items to our store before February 14th will receive a $5 gift certificate to Impressions of Saratoga in appreciation for the support.
Having served up over 115 bowls of chowder, we were very happy with this year’s recipe. Apparently, so was Mayor Scott Johnson’s dog, Dr. Watson. With much to-do, Dr. Watson strolled down the carpet, immediately targeted BARKer’s CHOWder, and wolfed down the entire bowl of Impressions’ chowder. It appears that Dr. Watson approved of this year’s recipe just as much as last years.
Special thanks to Dan Butler and Sandy from the Saratoga County Animal Shelter, Dawgdom, Sloppy Kisses, and most of all, to our customers. Whether or not you were here for this event, you are the reason we have now started our 31st year in business. Thank you!
