New owners celebrate re-opening of Martha’s Herbary

BY BLANCHE GOSSELIN VILLAGER CORRESPONDENT POMFRET — For Plainfield resident Michelle King, the new owner of Martha’s Herbary, the shop’s two-day open house, Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 7 and 8, was more than just business as usual. “I feel so fortunate to carry on the founder’s — Martha’s — legacy,” King said. According to King, the late Martha Paul shared with the community her dedicated interest in herbs for a total of 21 years — first in Hampton, and then in Pomfret. “As a customer, I often came into the shop, and Martha and I became fast friends,” said King. “For eight years I worked for her.” King smiled back a menacing teardrop when she remembered her mentor’s gradual loss of energy and failing health. “It was hard to see her go,” she admitted, “but I’m so glad my husband and I were able

I was frustrated I was taken away from my parents,” he said. “Everything always came hard. It was a struggle to get what I wanted. Even when I did, it wasn’t sat- isfying because I had to fight for it every step of the way.” Born in New London and raised in Montville by his mother and stepfather, he was placed in cus- tody of the Connecticut Department of Children and Families (DCF) at the age of 10. Throughout the years, he stayed in 15 different foster homes and group homes. Even when one of those foster homes seemed promis- ing, tragedy would strike Phillips’ life again. “I never knew my father. My father left when I was a baby,” Courtesy photo Phillips recalled. “… I had a foster Phillips, as shown here in his photo for the father that I was extremely close TEEG annual report, “Planting a Seed,” to. … He was like my father.

ocated just off the “hill” in historic Thompson Connecticut, this exceptional resi- Ldence comes with a history as interesting as its serene setting. Built shortly after the signing of the Declaration of Independence, this 8 room country farmhouse has seen America grow from horse drawn carriages to modern times. It has been home to farmers and ministers as well as world famous photographers & explorers. The current owners have carefully updated with integrity, preserving many of the original features of the home including the 2 fireplaces and wide board flooring. The home boasts of 3 generous sized bedrooms, 2 modern bathrooms, and a formal dining room adorned with one of the fireplaces. There is also a front parlor which opens up into a sitting room which, in its day, no doubt hosted many nervous young beaus who came courting. The comfortable, eat- in kitchen opens onto a fieldstone patio overlooking mature landscaping, colorful perennials and 4+ flat acres surrounded by stone walls. Hidden behind the main house is a brand new 3 bay garage with a loft which would be perfect for an artist’s studio. Across the circular driveway is a 5 stall horse barn which opens up to a fenced paddock area. This home is just minutes from Routes 395 & 44, and located just 45 minutes from Providence and an hour from Boston. Come discover the peace & tranquility the “Quiet Corner” of Connecticut has to offer. Now offered at $354,900

Honda Accord Crosstour a Crossover That Doesn’t Photograph Well, But Drives Well

BY KEITH GRIFFIN

Don’t believe what you may have read elsewhere. The Honda Accord Crosstour is not the ugly stepchild that has been portrayed in the automotive media. This new crossover utility vehicle must be a vehicle that does not photograph well because it’s pretty handsome in the flesh. I see a good-looking version of the Infiniti FX35 when I look at the Crosstour. This could become a hot seller for Honda simply because it has the Accord name attached to it (but interestingly Honda only plans to sell 20,000 models a year). Anything Accord has sold pretty well over the years. However, I’m going to call it the Crosstour going forward. I’m not falling for the whole name game. The Crosstour is a five-door, five- passenger premium CUV. Note that Honda is not calling it a luxury crossover for a couple of rea- The 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour is an all-new crossover that needs to be seen in the flesh to be truly appreciated.
