More love, please.
It’s hard to sit here and promote our new market items or tell you about how I organized my towel closets this past weekend… when so many people are suffering right now.
I’ll tell you more about how many loaves this community and beyond has donated to the Salvation Army. Our Share The Loaf program continues and I’m still seeing those orders come through. What you are doing is helping - I couldn’t be more grateful when I see those tickets come through.


We’ve been delivering anywhere between 10-24 loaves of fresh bread every Monday evening. Since we launched this program in November, we’ve donated over 240 loaves.
This makes a difference - - Thank you.


This Woon Hot Sauce says “MAMA’S WAY HOT SAUCE”
It came with the best postcard sharing more about the story of Woon — woon meaning bowl in Cantonese. I taped it up by my desk because I fell in love with the drawing.
Woon is a homestyle Chinese restaurant in Los Angeles featuring Mama’s Fong’s recipe. Vegan, GF, and vinegar based chili garlic hot sauce. They recommend adding this to noodles, rice, wings, eggs, pizza, avocado toast, tacos.. or whatever.
Pick up one for you and for your friend who likes hot sauce.



Spread The Love — these goodies aren’t just for Feb 14 — they are for now and for everyone. Make someone’s day and put together a little package. That friend that you keep thinking about? Drop off a little something on their porch that will make them smile. That family that needs some sweet treats & a chocolate bar — you’ll make their day.
These tiny heart cards with a green envelope are perfect for a simple message — “thinking of you”
[ I’m thinking about the feeling you get when someone hands you the best sweater they don’t wear anymore, but it’s perfect and it means the world to you (ahem, Sarena) — or that one time I was sick and Quyen dropped off a care package and waved to me through the window while I was on the couch. What would I have done without those magazines she got me to pass the time…and that amazing kombucha? I think of those moments often and how they last. They truly mean a lot and you don’t forget. ]
