The Corn Roast at the Minnesota State Fair is a must! I have no idea how they get their corn to luscious and perfectly roasted, but it's totally addicting and I MUST have corn! |
Meanwhile, experiments are still being made for my holiday cards and components I've decided on are being made with new things coming to me in the mail soon. I've had this year's design perched in my mind for more than two years now and finally think I can manage to make it happen. Everything has to click into place on this, though. No fudging. I think it may well be the most complex design I've ever come up with - not what I was thinking about initially, but what it's turning into. I wish I had started this a couple of months earlier *sigh*.
Have you received your new chip enabled credit cards in the mail yet? For those of you in Europe, this is old news because you've had yours for a while, but here in the USA, we're just catching up now. Beginning in October, I need to be able to accept chip cards at my credit card terminal or I could be responsible for any credit card fraud running through my system. We tried a quick check on one late last week and it didn't go through the way it needs to. I'll be on the phone with tech services this morning to find out why, and what I need to do to activate that part of my credit card terminal. The joys of small business ownership.
We also need a store supply that we haven't had to direct order for several years, having been fortunate enough to get stock from other stores leaving the business or a few vendors who carried sizes we needed. Turns out, the company we used to get these items from has been bought by a different company and now I need to phone them and find out what in their products list corresponds to what we used to order. We don't have a lot of fudge room on this component. I think I'm going to really need the "relaxation" of Wednesday and Thursday housecleaning before Sharon arrives Thursday night. Happy Tuesday, all!
