Is it SET UP Day? Is it the FIRST DAY




of the Haberdashery Show? Hard to tell! Gary and I started out our usual EEEEEEARLY! We hate traffic -- so we were in NYC, parked and all our neckwear at our booth by 6:45am! THAT'S SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But that's us! We packed our line so well this show -- all neat and tidy and organized. Our man, Jonathan, the trimmer made our booth look its usual amazing. So we're all set up and ready to show you our lines of ties, 9 folds, pocket squares and new this season BOW TIES!

We said hello to all our old friends who show at the Haberdashery and it feels like home in the Kent Room. We showed our line a few times today and had great response. I mean REALLY GREAT response! We were BUSY!!!!!!!!!!!

In the middle of it all, Gary got a call from a customer in Louisiana. He had called the day before and bought our line SIGHT UNSEEN and had the merchandise shipped overnight. He called Gary to tell him thanks and how wonderful all the merchandise is. This customer also called his sales rep -- and told him how GREAT the Private Stock Menswear Line is too! So our sales rep called so excited that he needed his sample line shipped Overnite! I had to leave the show to come back and put his line in a box and send it out UPS. I had to leave Gary for the afternoon, but I got to get home and see our son and make us all dinner. And to relax...what did I do? I baked an apple pie! Sheesh, I got up at 4:15am and I'm baking a pie? That's just CRAZY.

So on that note, I will close for tonight. I had my camera with me but forgot to snap pictures of our customers today! I'm so annoyed at myself.

Anyway, come on by the show and see us this weekend. Don't forget to pick up your bag of biscotti too!

Best,
Jane

PS My sister bought me these cool cutouts for for pie crusts. Aren't they cool?!
