Organic Tart Cherry Juice Jelly
BRAND NEW! Our Tart Cherry Juice Jelly uses juice from organic cherries that are left on the tree until ripe. This juice, pressed with cherry pits, results in a full-flavored cherry jelly that is fresh and tart. The cherries for our juice come from Northport's Garthe Farms - one of the first fruit farms in Leelanau County. They actually had a farm-to-table restaurant on the farm over 80 years ago. The cherries are then pressed at Northern Naturals, a local organic hard cider facility in Kaleva.

Mama Lu's Taco Shop
There are few things I like more, food-wise, than tacos. I could seriously eat them every day. New to downtown TC, Mama Lu's is delicious!! Executive Chef John Larson's menu is driven by authentic Mexican street food grounded in a fresh 'made to order' tortilla. You really cannot go wrong with anything you order, but be sure to try the street corn. You're welcome.

ARTICLE TITLE |
Better Call Saul
Did you watch Breaking Bad? Did you love Saul? This is the show for you. In a prequel to BB, Bob Odenkirk is Jimmy McGill (his real name before becoming Saul), a small time lawyer and former scam artist who becomes involved in the criminal world. Odenkirk is fantastic. You find yourself kind of rooting for this guy even though he is pretty much a scumbag. I can't wait for season 2!
Season 1 is currently streaming on
Netflix. Season 2 will be out soon on
AMC

Don't add to the heat inside. Try doing chores that use heat generating appliances, like doing laundry, using the dishwasher, or the stove, in the early mornings or evenings when it's cooler outside. When possible use alternatives like cooking outside on the grill or using the toaster oven instead of the stove-top oven. Hang wet clothes on a clothesline instead of using the dryer. Computers can also generate a lot of heat if left running. Be sure to turn them off whenever they are not being used.

"And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow in fast movies, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer."
