Cinn Daz Blog

Today is the start of a new era.  Cinnamon Dazzle is a profit making and nonpolitical business, but still Madeleine and I have high hopes for a better future under our new president.

We want to live in and do business in a society where all people truly are equal. We want economic security and access to quality health care. All these goals will take time, but today, at least, we have made a start.

On the business side, we have been ordering new jewelry, banners, sarongs and more. Our first vending event this year is Amaya’s Oriental Potpourri on February 7 & 8. You can visit the vendor area without paying an entrance fee. Attending the belly dance workshops and/or evening show requires a fee.  For more information call 505-281-4492 or email maria@amaya.com.

We hope to see you.  You can also visit the store in our house by calling 505-268-9159 and making an appointment. We also plan to keep adding new merchandise to our website (www.cinnamondazzle.com). Shipping is free within the United States for all purchases $30 or greater.

We hope to see or hear from you soon.

Dear Friends,

Let’s hope 2009 is turning point for our economy and country. A majority of the Americans who voted last November made it clear that it was time for a change. Sill, regardless of who is president, our economy is likely to linger in recession for a while.

Cinnamon Dazzle (as with other small businesses) completely depends on the economy. Last year, we saw fewer people making small purchases, but those with stable incomes spent about the same as in earlier years at our booth. It’s a two-tier economic system I think.  Haves and have-nots to put it in simple terms.

We , of course, want everyone to continue spending as before, but we are realistic. Only when the economy improves, will our business likewise improve. In the meantime, we will keep on offering our unique and quality goods at moderate prices. We do not have the overhead of the larger stores located in business districts.

We will continue to expand and keep current our web page (www.cinnamondazzle.com). Shoppers are welcome at our in-house store at 1101 Madison, SE; Albuquerque, NM, but please contact us first at 505-268-9159 or cinnamon@swcp.com for an appointment.

Our next vending event is Amaya’s Oriental Potpourri held on February 7 & 8 at Albuquerque’s South Broadway Cultural Center . We hope to see you there.
