Breaking News!!!
We interrupt your regularly scheduled broadcast for this winter weather advisory!
The Polar Express is making its way down from Canada into the Texas Pole!
Prices are falling faster than the temperature in downtown Athens as we speak!
Several flurries of sales receipts were spotted by this reporter today as shoppers hurried into Winnie & Tulula's/Sweet Pea's and out with their purchases before the Big Chill hit!
Dealers were plunging their prices with many last minute, deep discounts before heading out for a frosty mocha latte.
Every effort was made to insure all animals were safe from the threat of freezing prices.
Neither snow nor sleet nor anything else will stop this sale. Gloria, Headmistress of Sweet Pea's/Winnie & Tulula's, has informed this reporter the sale will be extended through next week for those not possessing skates and/or skis.
Stay tuned for updates as they become available.
We now return you to regularly scheduled programming.
Good night and shop responsibly!

It's hereeee...
LOL! Debbie...I can ASSURE YOU that I have 'been there done that' these past weeks! The (real) weather has been bone chillin' lately...and we've had snow...and more snow...and more snow...about 1/2 NE of me (Fulton, NY) they've had about 5' since the weekend! Needless to say, they were featured on the Today Show yesterday. Anywho...I have my own breaking news...I checked the forecast and we will see sunshine...next Wednesday...maybe. :-)
That's all from this reporter, here in Syracuse, NY! Keep warm...Tami
Oops...that would be...about 1/2 hr NE of me (Fulton, NY)

We are just waiting for the AM rush hour snowfall or as in Ohio we like to call it 'the white death" because of the near hysteria the weather forecasters like to indulge. I had to grocery shop for my mom today in case we never get out of our homes until spring. Tee hee! I wish I could take advantage of that extra shopping time at W&T! Stay warm. Hugs, Pam
The geese! The deer in a bucket! OOooooo!
Really? Cold in Texas? Who woulda thunk? Stay in your feetie jammies with a pot of chocolat chaude on the stove.
Warm oxoxox from Portland

Oh yeah, you worked that magic again, didn't you? I love watching you do your thang. It's always beautiful. But, I did miss your sidekick today! And Brrr is right. I'm wearing long johns and wool socks at this very moment. Great post! ~Mindy
Wish I were there to pick up some of those icy hot deals!
Hey Debbie....thanks for the notice and the pretty pictures. Here in Houston we're "hunkering" down for an Artic Blast too! BRRRRRR........I've GOT to come and visit sometime.....that store is precious!
I'd venture out in the cold to get my hands on some of this great junk. These displays are awesome. By the way when are the Marburger and Zapp Hall shows this Spring. I'm dreaming of getting there this year.
Enjoy your week!

It's so cold outside... I wanna be the lil' DARLING hiding out amongst the hydrangeas!!! Or, I would like to be sleeping on the settee surrounded with the gorgeous ruffly pillows...
It IS warm in the duct tape mobile... I should just go to Athens and curl up in the chair in front of the mantel. I'll bring a scarf and burnt up flowers for you. LOLOL
Stay warm!!!

I want it all!!!! Diana
I was with you until you said SHOP RESPONSIBLY. It is obvious the cold is affecting you...get warm with a quick swig from your flask and get crazy, woman!
I like it when you show all these pictures. It's like window shopping. The chair would be fabulous in my house and I love all the ruffled white pillows and geese too. Thanks for the fun! Stay warm. You guys must be FREEZING down there because you're not used to it...sorry. Hope the sun shines again soon. ;-)

This is when cabin fever sets in...while the wind howls and drifts the snow outside, this intrepid junker types away at the internet seeking out new ideas for spring...and a quart of tequila sets the mood...usually face first!!! Ha!
Mmmm, that sounds really good...tah tah...
nut
Brrrr! Can you believe how cold it is down here? Gosh, I wish I wasn't so cold, I would get in my car and come snatch up a couple of those fabulous pillows!
Stay warm!

Dear Deb-

Hi, loved the pictures. I would so love to visit your shop but it's a little too far for me to drive!
Keep warm and Happy New Year, Bonnie
Total bummer not to have been there... I would have walked out with a beautiful stack of those white ruffled pillows. Bummer, and I could take the weather, we just left a week of -20.
