You will find delicious fudge including flavors such as chocolate, raspberry dark chocolate and peanut butter as well as S’mores on a stick which the kids love.
Teresa tells her story: “My aunt taught me to sew when I was in 6th grade. She also taught me to knit and crochet and after doing it for years I discovered that I could teach myself to read a pattern. For years I did wood and dried flower arrangements until that all went out of style. Then I turned to beading and have enjoyed making many beautiful jewelry pieces. Part of my enjoyment is watching the faces of the people at the markets and craft shows admiring all the wonderful crafts for sale." Visit Tsurfer.etsy.com for more information.
