Emerald’s restaurant reborn
ALLSTARS
Emerald’s II a new version of an old favorite By Tim Rowland STA FF W RITER
TICONDEROGA | Just shy of two months ago, a devastating fire leveled the historic Ticonderoga Country Club and the beloved Emerald’s Restaurant within. Owners Mark and Erin Wood immediately announced plans to rebuild, before deciding that they couldn’t wait that long. Now, almost literally overnight, Emeralds is back in a new location as Emerald’s II. “We had been out of business for too long,” Erin said from behind the bar, where she was again juggling fruit, setting up beers and whiskey sours and entertaining her regulars, or “irregulars,” as she smilingly called them, her clientele laughing along in appreciation. » Emerald’s Cont. on pg. 3

Candy Corner opens in Ticonderoga Old-style candy shop has plenty of sweets and nostalgia By Tim Rowland STA FF W RITER

TICONDEROGA | When young Braelyn Pelerin burst into the new Candy Corner store in downtown Ticonderoga, her mother, Samantha Patnode, asked which of the many candies on display she might like. Pelerin immediately zeroed in on the correct answer: “All of them,” she said. Call it the wisdom of youth.
Watching the expressions of joy on young faces has been one of the more gratifying aspects for Joe and Cindy Bodette, whose sugary shop opened at the end of June. Candy Corner is a throwback to candy shops of old, with retro-bars like Bit-O-Honey, bulk candy in jars and vintage sodas made with cane sugar. “Kids get a real kick out of taking a bag and putting a little bit of everything in them, Joe Bodette said. And for the big kids, there is a line of fine chocolates and thick slabs of fudge from Phenomenal Fudge, made right across the lake in Shoreham, Vt. Bodette has continued his barbecue catering business, but had decided he no longer wanted to continue on with the sit-down restaurant side of the business. That left him with downtown retail space to fill. » Candy Cont. on pg. 2
