Happy Holidays!

I know that it's been a long tough year for everyone, but it's almost over and we should all try to remember our many blessings during this holiday season.

I've selected some books that will make great gifts for Christmas and Kwanzaa. Gift wrapping is also now available. And, as always, you can take advantage of our "ship to" service to have your gifts sent to your friends and loved ones. We also have Gift Certificates available for that special someone, when you can't decide what to send.

To ensure that Christmas presents are received in time, please order no later than December 15th.

On behalf of all of us here at Indigocafe.com, we wish you a merry Christmas, a happy Kwanzaa, and a joyous Chanukah.
