The day of the sun is like the day of a king. It is a promenade in the morning, a sitting on the throne at noon, a pageant in the evening. – Wallace Stevens

With every bite, these soft, delicately textured cookies will have you wanting more. The mother and daughter team, Rose-Mary and Rosie in Cobourg, in charge are always looking for ways to improve their already sublime creations. That being said, expect to find more changes to come concerning these lovely mini shortbread cookies.
The range of flavours keeps growing but her perfected recipes and commitment to using only premium ingredients will always remain the same. – The Shortbread Company, Cobourg, Ontario
Herma’s Cheese Shop
With Thanksgiving just around the corner and our Creating with Cathy class coming up in two weeks, we couldn’t pass up an opportunity to point out something special…a vehicle on which to present our lovely cheeses and charcuterie that may only be found at Herma’s.
NEW at Herma’s – Harry’s Cheese Board for Two
Harry’s Cheese Board for Two is made of solid Great Canadian Maple, is branded with Herma’s logo and may be purchased for $20.
How do I use thee let me count the ways…
1. This Cheese Platter for Two (or one) allows you to enjoy grazing on cheese and charcuterie, but on a smaller scale, without all the fuss.
2. Hostess Gift
This small wooden board with cheese, preserves and crackers on top would make a lovely gift for your hostess as you attend a Thanksgiving celebration. Would be extra-special presented as a gift basket.
3. As a Centerpiece on a table which will provide guests with nibbles of cheese, charcuterie, fruit and baguette. For your Thanksgiving table you may want to provide 1 wooden board per every 2-3 guests. Harry’s NEW wooden boards don’t have handles and will fit one right after the other in the middle of the table.
4. As a Cutting Board for chopping and slicing in the kitchen. Does not take up as much counter space as other cutting boards and are easier to clean.

Climate Awareness
On this day of Climate Awareness Herma and her staff have been considering ways in which we may help with the environment. Bags are a big concern for us and we are trying to come up with a solution. For now, however, we do urge shoppers to bring reusable bags to the store.
We look forward to your visit and wish you well as you prepare for a fabulous weekend.
Sincerely,
