It looks like I forgot to post our HOLIDAY issue (??!!) and I'm sure by now EVERYONE has seen it, but since I hear the might be interested in (and why wouldn't they?!!) I had to get this out there 🎄🤶🎁☃️

How sweet is it when you stumble upon a new person who brings so much joy, color...AND hot coffee into your life!!
I met Blaine (and her adorable daughter!) while hanging on the porch at Woodlife Farm Market one afternoon after work, and of course I had to strike up a conversation. It's what us naturally friendly, inquisitive editor types do, (!!) and I'm so happy I did, as Blaine owns a landscaping company, not far from my new digs.
She not only gave us exactly what we wanted, (I can't wait till spring!!) but also, the curb appeal this beautiful farmhouse deserves, and just in time for its fall shoot 🎃🌻🍁

Blaine, I'm so happy I met you!!

PS... I should've called you on tips on how to get these dogs to POSE for this shot !! 🐶🐾🙄🐾

Watching the blogger Colleen Pausley of PICK through The Barn at Pointing Dog Farm looking for treasures was such a treat!
I've loved Coll's style for years and having her style the farmhouse for next year's fall issue was....
simply...enchanting!
Personally... I'd recommend working with a stylist for anybody's home... it was the greatest process...after I "cleared the decks" she went through and "shopped my stuff" and put back an edited selection... my house actually feels calmer, serene almost...I just love it!!

What a wonderful evening at the SOH AWARDS DINNER 🍾🏡🥂...and I got to see BOTH my COVER GIRLS!! Anybody that knows me, knows I'm all about A GOOD READ, and PRINT, but it's been such fun following along on a more SOCIALLY adventurous path with Cait (and Chevy!). I love working on this issue (all my issues!!) and every cover is such fun, (I get to work with LIZ BISHOP!!) but this (if I'm remembering correctly!!) is my first cover house by a woman builder 👷🏻‍♀️💃👷🏻‍♀️💃. Cait - I'm sure you're still floating on a cloud, but I wanted to add one more thing to be happy about today 💜💜💜

If you haven’t checked out this article, that was mentioned in the FALL issue, but ran in the H&G issue, please do!!

Instead of college, today more top students are choosing a career path into the trades. 🧑🏻‍🏫

With the help of The Northeast Construction Trades Workforce Coalition (NCTWC) and Washington- Saratoga-Warren-Hamilton-Essex (WSWHE) BOCES Employment Training for Adults (ETA) program, top scholars Alex Dominguez and Rachel Wilbur stepped out of the box and did just that.
Check out SimplySartaoga.com and search TRADES to pull up the Simply Saratoga Home & Garden 2024 issue and read this insightful article about taking a career path into the trades.
-Great Job with this article!!

I can't believe we're here already, these months just fly by!
Didn't we all just attend the Historic Belmont Stakes... and here we are picking up the fall issue already?!
Wow-lol
As always...
I want to thank those that help us put out this issue... it's so much more than "just another edition of Simply Saratoga" this one promotes the Showcase of Homes, which helps raise thousands of dollars for two wonderful organizations that do so much for our communities!! 🙌🙌🙌
Thank you Liz for your help and support each year, Lifestyles and The company Salon for creating our trendy cover girl, and our homeowners Cait and Chevy!!
And of course....
all the planning in the world wouldn't get me anywhere without Randall Perry Photography 🧡 and his helpers... Lydia Delano Photography was our Shoot Assistant and Alexandria Bushee did the BTS pics 📸
Another great cover, another great issue! I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do - Happy Fall!! I'm officially ready to order a pumpkin latte!!

The only thing wrong about my job, is that I'm always crazy busy and don't have time for all the niceties that I would love to do, such as say...

"CONGRATULATIONS CAROL ON THE RELEASE OF YOUR FIRST BOOK...
ON THIS SPOT: SARATOGA SPRINGS!"

I say FIRST as Carol is a natural at this and is a wealth of knowledge, I'm sure there will be more, many more in her future! 🎉🥂🍾

I can't wait till her next BOOK SIGNING at on August 13th at 6pm!
(Since I unfortunately had to miss the first two 😢)

To read more about Carol's journey to being a published author, check out her interview with Megin Potter in the summer issue of Simply Saratoga, or search Carol Godette at SimplySaratoga.com, to see some of the DOZENS of articles she has written over the past eight years while being a contributor to Simply Saratoga magazine (and my unofficial BIG SISTER and mentor!). I love this woman, she's been so instrumental in helping me build SS into the wonderful GOOD READ that it has become 💜Thank You Carol - Love You!! XOXO

PS....
This ADORABLY illustrated cover was done by her very talented daughter-in-law Dominika Godette!! 🌸🌸🌸
