JULY FIREWORKS

Well, Its time for July Fireworks
And the biggest Fireworks of all is the fact that Trina has decided to leave my bookstore Home, for an online store  and make me a common House Cat . The very idea, This whole thing has made me shed and crave more treats. And the really bad rumor going around is that their are dogs where i am going . Well, we will see about that, i still have Claws  haha !

Snow Bear and Molly's New Perch

This guy is soaking up the last rays of sunshine before snowmageddon - come by after the snow and see him and his friends!

Well, the humans around here thought we needed some changes - so they started re-decorating. Needless to say, I have to supervise yet another project - like I didn't have enough to do. But, I will go so far as to say, it has allowed me new places from which to view my domain and that is always a good thing.
I have only so many hours to get things done but just wanted you to know that I am running a special on model trains in February. They are all 50% off. Didn't know we had model trains - well, we do. And you have missed so much by not dropping by - I wonder how you survive without my input!
Come by and perhaps - you can be my Valentine - well, we will see - after all, I am a cat and we are quite particular you know.

Romance by the light of the moon

This week come by and take advantage of our sale on all Nora Roberts books! Paperbacks are only .50 and hardbacks are $1.00.  It is getting close to Valentines Day so we might as well get in the Romance mood! And besides a good read with a nice warm drink is just the thing for this time of year!
As queen of the book store, I have been flipping through the romances and purring and craving kitty chocolate. More on that later . . .

Nora Roberts was born  Eleanor Marie Robertson and is a bestselling American author of more than one hundred fifty romance novels. She was the first author to be inducted into the Romance Writers of America Hall of Fame. 
Her first full length release was the book "Hot Ice" in 1987. She is considered one of the most prolific romance writers ever.

Don't forget that books make great Valentine gifts and the time to get your orders in is now!

"The book salesman should be honored because he brings to our attention, as a rule, the very books we need most and neglect most."  Confucius

A Shop Cat's Work is Never Done


For those of you who have not dropped by to see me - yet, 
you cannot imagine how hard I have been working. 
So I will tell you. 
Always re-organizing, re-arranging and just plain improving.
DIY has nothing on me! 
Since January is for new beginnings the shop is starting new specials! 
For January all Teddy Bears and Christmas Decorations are 20% off.
Make room for Valentines day and all those hearts and chocolate!

In the Beginning

Welcome to our blog! My name is Molly - I am a gray striped cat and this is my world. I have help. Trina usually handles the heavy stuff - you know - the computer and postage and things that are really beneath my position. My position is Shop Cat. Top Cat. Queen of my World. You get the picture. And of course there is Chris - who handles finding lost books and shelving the new ones and keeping my large library of music CDs in order. And Naomi who handles all the things that Trina and Chris don't get done. So really, I have a great crew. I have to crack the whip from time to time but as long as I get my 3 naps a day - I can't really complain. 
We are a busy place and with all the new arrivals and packing and shipping the internet orders well it keeps a girl on her toes. 
We have all kinds of books, antique, romance, fiction, literature, music, the classics, literature, mystery, religion, self help, science fiction, biography, travel, nature, cooking, comic books, a whole children's area, art, and a few others that I will let you come by to find. A girl can't give away all her secrets on the first date!
We also keep busy with artisan jewelry made with cosmic stones (sometimes I sleep on them and WOW what dreams), local artists bring in their artwork for my opinions and we sell in the shop too. Then there are the seasonal items - holiday decorations throughout the year and artwork hung high on the walls (after all what is blank space for?) teddy bears and collectible finds. Our gifts and collectibles change with my moods - so you must stop by and check them out. 
When I am not working my buns off you can find me on my green tartan in one of the chairs at the round oak table at the front of the store. It is my office really. It is where I meet with my people, do lunch, have parties and do my planning. You can't miss it when you come in. Be sure and stop by and let me know what you are looking for - if we don't have it today - Trina can probably find it for you.
We have monthly specials - and I will start listing those for you here so keep checking in!
Well, looking at the clock on the wall - I see it is nap time so this is Molly, signing off with a purr and a paw until next time I leave you with one of my favorite quoations.
Read, every day, something no one else is reading. Think, every day, something no one else is thinking. Do, every day, something no one else would be silly enough to do. It is bad for the mind to be always part of unanimity.
