Maple Scones,Coffee, Gifts, Happy New Year!
I've mentioned these delectable delights before but it must me mentioned again. There's nothing like a freshly baked maple scone and a cup of St. Lawrence Valley Roasters coffee for breakfast. The coffee site is still under construction. It's a long story....but if you see something you'd like or need a list of what's available you can call or email. Tim will be happy to help you out. We've prepared and mailed several gift baskets and many pounds of coffee over the holiday season. Soon there will be a brand new upgraded, updated, website so that our customers can buy our coffee any time, anywhere! So, be looking for that.
North Fork Gifts is also becoming busier and busier. As the gift basket maker and crafter, Lisa has been making many hand made soy wax candles, soaps, lotions, scrubs and such. Her website is also a work in progress but you can purchase via http://www.northforkgifts.com/ or on etsy or art fire where she also has shops. The same goes....if there's something you'd like that you can't seem get the website to help you with, send an email and Lisa will be happy to help you out. Don't forget that I do custom orders too. http://www.northforkgifts.etsy.com/ http://www.northforkgifts.artfire.com/ As things progress I will be updating everyone so please do come back and check us out.
I will also take this time to thank everyone who has stayed at North Fork B&B, purchased our coffee and or gifts. We look forward to an even more productive year in 2011. Happy New Year!

North Fork Bed and Breakfast
North Fork B&B has been busy! We have had wonderful guests. It's always fun to meet new people. We've had people from Washington State, Minnesota and Mass. In addition to the B&B the gift shop has had orders as well. All very exciting! With all of this, I have also started back to work which is the reason why my blog has been neglected. I apologize! I am going to try to get back to writing. I can't believe it's October! The time has gone by so fast that I can hardly believe it. All of this being said, I'm going to have some new products to post very shortly. I'm going to be making large wood wick and regular wick candles. I'm showing some of the candles I have. These new candles will be right in time for the gift giving season. Some fall fragrances....and some winter and Christmas.....take a look at some of the ones that are currently available.
