Midsummer sunset. Breeze in your hair, sand in your flip flops. The first star of the evening peeks out from the horizon. Someone just hands you a cold beer as you help set the chairs up around the newly born bonfire. It’s going to be another scorcher tomorrow, but that’s the furthest thing from your mind because you know that this summer night will last a lifetime.

A window sill lined with these cuties would be so adorable.

Before and after. I don’t know which is tastier, what’s inside the mug or outside. Yum!

A study in nature: structure in chaos

I just wanted to thank everyone who had a part in raising the money for my new furnace. Whether you bought something from my web site or shared the post, I thank you. This new baby was installed last week. Just as I was starting to think warmth was a luxury, in under 3 hours, with the help of Harmon Heating & Cooling, I was finally able to take off my winter jacket in the house. The outpouring of love and kindness from those of you who’ve helped, has truly felt like a miracle. I’m truly humbled and grateful. Every time I feel that warm air bursting from the vents, I think of how lucky I am to have all of you on my side.

I just want to take a moment and thank each and every one of you who saw my post about my furnace dying on Christmas Eve, and purchased a little something (or two or three!) from me so that the cost of the new furnace wouldn’t be such a burden. Because of you kind souls, I sold enough handmade merchandise to cover over ** 70%** of the new furnace! I’m beyond humbled. Over the moon with gratitude. These last few days have made me realize what an amazing group of people I’ve s...urrounded myself with. I also want to thank those of you who went out of your way to share my posts as well.

This family of four have lived in Rochester their entire lives. They are huge supporters of local art, music, small business and sports. Can you imagine losing everything in a matter of hours? Just watching as it all goes up in smoke? While they may not have their material possessions, we all thank our lucky stars that they were able to walk away with their health. Every dollar helps put the pieces of their lives back together, but if you can’t contribute, *SHARING THIS POST* helps just as much. Please consider doing one or both for this young family.
