December Wedding Leaves Bride Out in the Cold.

Hi all,
Cora Applebaum here, for Orchard Hill Highlights. The whole town has been waiting for the wedding of Grace Randall, owner of the popular coffee house The Gracce Place and her high school sweetheart Steve. This dream wedding turned into a nightmare though, when Steve got cold feet and decided to warm them up in Hawaii with Grace's waitress Tami.

Grace was reportedly so upset when Steve's best man, Riley O'Neil of O'Neil's Handy Hardware, broke the news to her, that she locked herself in the ladies room and refused to come out until all the guests were gone. I looks like it will be a long, cold winter for poor Grace. Of course, she and Riley have been friends since kindergarten and he seems anxious to comfort her. What are the chances that Riley will be the one to thaw Grace's frozen heart?

Orchard Hill Community Church secretary Pansy Parker was overheard to say that she knew Steve was the wrong man for Grace. Does she have someone better in mind? I tried to reach her for comment, but she was unavailable.

Speaking of Pansy, she and Misty Green have been seen whispering in corners several times lately. It's no secret that Pansy and Misty usually fight like cats and dogs. When did they become so chummy? Have you finally buried the hatchet ladies? I, for one, hope so.

Faithfully submitted,
Cora Applebaum
