"S" is for Summer

Hats off to Summer!

Hey everyone!  Hope you're in summer mode.  Schools is out, the graduation parties are in full swing, and Lake houses are being readied for the upcoming season. My garden is growing madly, and the weeds are attempting to join in the fun.  We're getting all sorts of goodies here at the store that say SUMMER in one form or another.  

One line that's always popular is Chavez for Charity. More than $1 million dollars has been raised by this company for their partner charities. Go color crazy and support a good cause at the same time.

We're always amazed when we open the box of these and see hundreds and hundreds of these happy, colorful bracelets. They're great to mix and match in all sorts of combinations, and, at just $10, they're really fun to give as gifts, too. We have several "color experts" here at Clever Girl that will be happy to assist you in putting together interesting combinations!

It seems everywhere I look this summer, this hat, from Eugenia Kim keeps popping up.  [see it here]  I was thrilled to order a version for the store that I think you'll all just love.  Not only is it adorable, and pithy, (and how often can one say that about a hat?) our version is only $44 dollars: that's $400 LESS than hers!  They'll go fast, so reserve yours ASAP, or ask to be placed on our wait list.

BOTTOMS UP!

We've discovered the antidote to a scorchingly hot day! Bang Candy Company Flavored Syrups are made by hand in small batches with only the finest ingredients. They're perfect for making refreshing sodas, delicious cocktails and adding a touch of pizzaz to virtually any recipe! 

Basil is known as the "King of Herbs"and Peaches are regal in their own right. Roll out the red carpet for this royal marriage of flavors. Just add Prosecco for a heavenly Bellini with a twist! A splash of sparkling water makes for a delicious refreshing soda, possibly my very favorite!

PEACH BASIL NECTAR SYRUP

PINEAPPLE JALAPEÑO CILANTRO

Sweet, refreshing and feisty! Satisfy your cravings without getting in trouble. Deliciously-sweet pineapple with the freshness of cilantro and a subtle kick of jalapeno. Margaritas!!! (Plays well with Tequila.)

Happy Summer, everyone!

Don't forget the Farmer's Market is every Thursday from 2-7
