1. In celebration of Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, we are donating a dollar for every facebook like we get in the month of October to Almost Home Animal Rescue & Haven. Our goal is to get 2,000 likes so we can write a check for $2,000 that will go to helping our furry friends find forever homes.
We rescued our Basset Hound, Gus over 2 years ago & he still makes us smile everyday :-)
2. FREE GOODY FRIDAY! Every Friday we give away fantastic finds to our firefly fans. All you have to do is tag yourself in the giveaway photo & you're entered. We draw three lucky winners on Monday & you get to pick up your loot at our Rochester or Berkley location.
3. Fun Firefly Facts that are interesting & amusing like...
Fun Firefly Fact #477: The delicious flavor of mushrooms intrigued the pharaohs of Egypt so much that they decreed mushrooms were food for royalty and that no commoner could ever touch them. Don't these stuffed shrooms look good enough for a queen?
Fun Firefly Fact #480: Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year & a popular observance during this holiday is eating apples dipped in honey as a symbol of a wish for a sweet new year.
Fun Firefly Fact #448: Lemon trees bloom and produce fruit year-round. Each tree can produce between 500 and 600 pounds of lemons in a year. Who knew you could do so many things with this pretty fruit?
4. Visit our store in your pajamas. Want to see our hip Halloween display... the latest scarves & hats we put out... the load of trend jewelry our UPS man just delivered or get ideas on what to get your dad for his birthday? You can tour through all our goods with a click of your keyboard.
5. Tasty recipes that will inspire you to mix up your same-old dinner routine. What's one thing we love besides whimsical gifts? ... Delicious dishes & tempting treats! That's why we can't resist posting links to recipes that make us drool like... mushroom & swiss sliders with spicy fry sauce banana cupcakes with peanut butter frosting and poor mans smores.
I warned you about the drool ;-) So what are you waiting for? Head on over to catching fireflies facebook page & give us a thumbs up so we can give Almost Home Rescue another dollar!
