What’s for dinner?

Many Granby families will serve turkey with all the trimmings on Nov. 26, but not all. The Drummer would like to see how your “Turkey Day” spread looks so please send in a photo. If you’d like, also send along a recipe for your favorite side dish or dessert.

When do YOU start holiday shopping?

By |

Some people start their holiday shopping during the January sales. The other extreme are those folks who haunt the stores on Christmas Eve.
Here at the Drummer we encourage Granby-ites to shop early (and often) at local businesses that offer lovely, interesting, fun, adventurous, tasty and healthy options!

Christmas Poinsettias

By |

Contrary to common myth, poinsettias are not lethal to cats and dogs but the sap can cause eye or skin irritation. Eating parts of the plant can cause drooling, lip-licking and mild intestinal issues.
Even though the plant is only mildly irritating, the ASPCA and other animal advocates recommend keeping poinsettias out of reach of pets.
