========================================================
At Chocolate Soup, I endeavor to create a place that is beautiful, peaceful and thoughtful. A place where you can take a deep breath and truly enjoy your shopping experience. Our Christmas Open House weekend is the busiest few days of the year---but fun and exciting, too! I hope it's inspiring and like many customers have said, "It's a tradition that starts off the holiday season."
This year our themes will be:
--Winter Woods--
--Farmhouse Cottage Christmas--
--Vintage Traditions--
--Gingerbread Treats--
--Cozy Cabin Christmas--
--O' Holy Night--
Christmas trees will be decorated with hundreds of ornaments while beautiful Christmas décor and gifts fill each room. I have chosen each item with our customers in mind---considering the quality, style and price.
There is something for everyone!

I want to thank my "Souper" women who help me bring my vision for each room together---Kip, Sharon, Sarah, Shirley, Darlene and my sisters, Pam and Lisa. All the hours of unpacking, pricing, cleaning, re-arranging and decorating--I couldn't do it without them!
Also thank you to my husband, Michael,
who really is my "right hand man" and encouragement.
========================================================
Don't forget to visit Miriam Costello at Miriam's Place.
Her little shop is between Sugar Pine Restaurant and Savoury's, behind the real estate office. She is the dear lady, the queen of gift shops, who started it all in Mariposa! In her 90's, she is still selling wonderful candy and gifts. Her Christmas Open House always coincides with ours, so stop in and buy some sugar plums. Guaranteed to encourage sweet Christmas dreams!
Thank you to all our dear customers who continually support Chocolate Soup by shopping and bringing friends and family to our store.
Without you, we simply would not exist!
We count our blessings and are truly grateful for each of you and the community we serve.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING AND A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!
