Jasmyne Cannick is in the holiday spirit and is also setting an example we should all follow - supporting our local businesses by making them part of our holiday shopping destinations.

She went to Eso-Won before it opened Friday to buy books.
"I figure if I am going to buy gifts, I am going to give the gift that keeps on giving, a book. Not a video game, not a HD television, not an
iPod, not a pair of Nike's. A book."
Eso-Won owners have said they will close after Christmas because of slow sales - maybe we can change their minds. And while you're in the Village don't forget to check out the handmade jewelry at Zambezi Bazaar, the T-shirts and music at Kaos, clothing at Africa by the Yard, Black art at Gallery Plus, drum lessons at the World Stage and more, more, more.
