There are many things that one can do in the winter besides eat, sit on the couch and watch a movie, eat some more, take a nap, have another snack, watch another movie, and so on. You get the idea. We sometimes forget that winter isn't always about sitting, napping, eating and watching television. It's about taking a walk on the clear crisp day, or doing a little retail therapy, and what better place to do it than Teaberry Antiques, Collectibles and Gifts located on Rte 9 in Clermont across from the Garden Greenhouse and next to Cape May Wicker. This pocket of Rte 9 holds some interesting retail shops that are open all year long, not just in the summer when everything is buzzing.

Speaking with Bill Lloyd, owner of Teaberry's and Sharon Houston, manager they told easyliving blog today why and how they came up with the idea to hold an indoor bazaar.

"You can sip on a cup of chai tea or coffee, munch on a bagel and shop at Teaberry's, it's all very relaxing;" said Lloyd. "Sharon came up with the idea because we just couldn't wait for mother nature to kick in and start doing her good weather deed, so we thought that it would be a fun day for our customers and show our appreciation to our vendors". Lloyd continued to say; "there's going to be door prize giveaways, ask the experts, meet the dealers and make deals, chocolate tastings and food demos. Hopefully the weather will break soon and we'll be set to once again hold our monthly outdoor bazaars. Last year our outdoor bazaars where so successful that there is no reason not to offer it again to the community".
