Children live nearer the surface of things. They notice the mouse tracks at the edge of the barn in February, the spring alder pollen beguiling the air, the first fireflies at the woodline in July. They show us that delight is still possible, that the good green pattern of
Conservation begins at home - at the creek we waded, the tree we climbed, the meadow we loved. Teach a child to notice the small green miracles, and they’ll grow a stewardship born in joy. @OldHollowTree for The Bully Pulpit:

Well, I guess Humming Meadow is the real deal now; ULINE sent us a pad of sticky notes on a miniature pallet for ordering so many shipping boxes from them. 😂 Thanks for continuing to buy candles, shirts, and mugs. More to come…

I want an episode of Financial Audit where it’s just a responsible couple who pays their credit card off every week, own their car, have a mortgage, and Caleb just kind of shrugs and says “I mean, I guess you could be like…saving more. No notes.” and they go and get an icecream

My secret is I actually like the “seconds” in our shop more. A blemish, a scratch mark, a wound. They reflect LIFE. Wounded, imperfect, beautiful.
I absolutely am in love with the glow of this woodgrain candle from @LadyHollowTree and @OldHollowTree. It was a 'second' but it has been perfect. I love how the wood grains glow as it burns. It brings me such peace of mind 😌🕯️🐝🪵

AOC claims America is in a “downfall” claiming the country was not “built to last” and it “deserves to decline.”

This made me laugh. Nice @realfemsapien mentioned us in her gift guide. “This mug is for the High-T Whitepiller” Darn tootin’! We still have some mugs for preorder that will ship by mid-December! https://t.co/n82mvXeeWe

Here he is showcasing one of the new dishes from his winter menu at the restaurant.
My son was made head chef of the restaurant he works at this week. He is 22. He has a big heart and great work ethic and I am proud.

Candle stock has been updated! There aren’t as many Christmas trees as I’d planned (it’s been a busy week) but I hope to have a bigger supply next week. Happy weekend everyone!
