There has been so much bad press lately about the Levy Brothers and the fate of the businesses they bought en masse at Beach Area 1. Perhaps that's why there has been less attention on the good things that are happening here. For instance, we finally have a coffee shop and bakery which serves some decent espresso and yummy deserts. I had the opportunity to stop in to the Kokomo Beanz which is located next to Giant Tiger (826 Mosley Street). There is a variety of fresh looking pies and cakes as well as cookies, biscotti, muffins and lunch items like quiche and soup.

For the past 12 years, wasaga.com has been primarily a word-of-mouth business. An advertiser will tell another business owner that their ad works really well, and before you know it, I get another phone call from someone who wants to try an internet ad. It's a system that has worked really well for me until this latest recession. Right now, people are being very careful with their money and advertising budgets are being slashed. What's a girl to do?
