I'll miss Elegant Expressions.

Today I met some old friends for lunch. They asked me to pick a spot in Penfield, and I chose Elegant Expressions.

The pretty purple building on Five Mile Line Road is a great place to go to with the girls, because it serves things like quiche and chicken salad on croissant -- not to mention wonderful desserts.

Much to my dismay, when we arrived we saw that Elegant Expressions has closed. A sweetly worded note hung on the window.

"I would like to thank everyone for all of your support over the years," it said. "I tried my best to run Elegant Expressions without Sue. I gave it my best shot and now it is time to close."

The answering machine message says that the bakery is up for sale.
