Christmas on the Square

HERE IT IS! THIS IS IT! (pulls the curtain away...reveals the big secret) The very first post in my brand new adventure.

Each year, the City of Greensburg holds a day-long event called Christmas on the Square. As a recent employee of Greensburg, I had a hand in planning and preparation, and was so excited to see it come to life on Saturday, November 30th.

***Disclaimer: If you are hungry, please skip ahead. I took way more photographs of cake than I thought I did. And that really doesn't surprise me.

The "Distinguished Young Women of Green County" held an old-fashioned cake-walk to raise scholarship money for their annual program.

*Made by Ms. Karen Gilpin. I have NEVER seen her create anything less than Food Network or Southern Living table-setting worthy. These festive little guys are no exception. 

YES. It IS acceptable to eat Mississippi Mud Cake in Kentucky. When we can make mud taste like this, we'll stop. But, for now, props to MS.

The lucky winner of my fancy-pants Lemon Poppyseed cake (as seen above). I hope he enjoyed that cake as much as I enjoyed not getting to lick the spoon.

Now that we all want a slice of cake...

These cleverly-named wind chimes outside Colvin's Frame Shop caught my eye. Locally made, greatly enjoyed.

Indulgent moment outside Colvin's Frame Shop. In my hand is the most delicious spice tea, made by Ms. Dottie Colvin, wife of the frame-maker himself.

The parade began at dark, following the countdown for the big reveal of Christmas lights.

    My favorite photo from the parade.

Around the square

My beautiful, witty, intelligent best friend, Miss Evie, displayed the newest addition on my wish-list. This towel and other items like it can be found at Kentucky Market House

Who cares about photo quality? This is Greensburg; my little town; our little home.
