Saleswoman Par Excellence




I visited Beads on Cannon, a very well-stocked bead store in Charleston.  Not knowing much at all about making or repairing jewelry, I asked for help and Lissa gave me friendly and expert advice.  She even fixed my two pairs of earrings herself.  Talk about service! Lissa has been working at this particular shop for six months but has had many years of experience with beading and jewelry..  After living in the Bronx she moved to Charleston for the warmer weather and because she was "tired of shoveling snow."  Can't say that I blame her.  Lissa also gave me great advice for a nearby restaurant serving shrimp and grits, my current favorite dish! What service!!

    Wonderful portrait and I'd be with you for those shrimp and grits. The new restaurant at the botanical garden serves a shrimp and grits appetizer and I love it.
