NH natives would never call me a local because I was born elsewhere, but I've lived here most of my life, and I don't see myself ever living elsewhere.

Whether I'm considered a local or not, I totally agree with Barbara! We had Riverstones make special cakes for our 25th anniversary. They were SO-OH-OH good!

Very nice folks to deal with, too. Actually, I'm kind of glad we don't live any closer!

On the other hand, we've just never been impressed by Yum Yum's baked goods. We're frequent flyers at the IGA bakery, though.

Another local checking in - don't even get me started about the owner ...

anyone know if the donut machine is up and running? We skipped the Yum Yum last weekend because we weren't sure.

We stopped by for Gingerbread cookies. All was good except no doughnuts because the fryaloator was broken.

OHHHH..... This reminded me of the Gingerbread House that is long gone but was fun for little ones. How they used to love to try to catch plastic fish from the small fish pond with the rods they had there. They also had candy and some small gifts to buy as well. Nice to have so many wonderful memories of our wonderful lake.

We used to go to the Yum Yum Shop more when we rented a cottage that was half way between Wolfboro and Meredith. Now we tend to not get to Wolfboro nearly as often as we live much closer to Meredith.

Was there yesterday morning. Still no donuts - but their raisin bread is great!

It was called tha Hansel and Gretel Shop, not the Gingerbread House although it certainly looked like one. I fished there and was so disappointed when it disappeared. It did reopen for a short while so my boys got to fish there as well. Now it is just empty and bears little resemblance to the original store of my youth.

Yes, you are right! I forgot that it looked like a gingerbread house but was indeed called the Hansel and Gretel Shop. I wish it was still there but no luck with wishes. Thanks for reminding me of the name.
