Saturday, February 4th, South 'n France Is Six Years Old!: We can hardly believe it; we're turning 6 years old! So much has happened in the past six years, I'm thinking of writing a book. It's been an unbelieveable roller coaster ride complete with thrills, chills, spills (trying cleaning up 72 ounces of hot, melted chocolate you just spilled all over the floor!), and pills (we go through bottles of Tylenol more quickly than we used to!) We wouldn't have made it this far without the enthusiastic support of our clients from North Carolina to New York to Florida to California. Thank you. We're so grateful!
