Christmas Day is just 1 week away ~

I know this year has gone by so fast. Now we only have one week to shop, bake, plan, cook and ponder the ideas of what to buy others for Christmas. I've always loved Christmas. I remember growing up in the 1950's. We would buy a fresh tree and decorate our house. Putting up a Nativity. Putting up colored Christmas lights in the living room window. My mom would bake cookies. We'd wrap presents. I still do all of the above now. And I enjoy it just as much now as I did then.

They are great memories.

Remembering what we did or where we went with our families as kids are usually good ones. Remembering that cookie jar that sat on top of your granny's counter. Or your mom's kitchen table. When you get a cookie jar from us you can relive that great homey feeling. A flash back in time. Check out our web site at www.jazzejunque.com if you can't stop in. If you are in the Chicago area stop in at Jazz'e Junque. We are at 3419 N Lincoln Avenue. Under the Brown Line El/Paulina stop. We'll be open every day till Christmas.

What has happened to America?

It saddened me when my hubby, Roger and I went to Long Grove this summer. We've tried to visit this lovely little village of shops and restaurants every summer. We had heard of the Apple House closing. What a shame losing this wonderful old business of selling apples everything. They were in business forever! We wondered what had replaced it. Well, nothing. And most of the shops were for rent. How awful! What is happening to our country? This was a lovely place to shop and have lunch. You can still eat at one of the few restaurants that is open. But not much shopping is left to do.

Is is because people love to look and browse and not spend a dime? They enjoy the fabulous shops. Take pictures of delightful merchandise that awaits them on the shelves. Then post the pictures on the Internet. Talk about what grandma once had in the antique shops.

People wake up and smell the coffee! These shop owners need to pay rent, gas, electric, phone, security companies, Internet, buy their amazing merchandise, pay for a licence, pay taxes, decorate their shops, heat it in the winter, cool it with air in the summer. These folks hire people and give them jobs. If you don't purchase, small businesses will become extinct.
