Come say hi while we are at the The Southern Vintage Market today in Benson! We have some tumblers, garden flags, tie-dye, and more!

🥳 Happy New Year! 🥳

Wow! It is hard to believe that today is the first day of a new year. Do have a word for the year? What about goals for the upcoming year?

We would love to hear what you are planning for 2024.

Now that December is here, time to remember the Christmas Cookie Rules. 🤣🤣🤣

CHRISTMAS COOKIE RULES...

MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎅 🤶

1. If you eat a Christmas cookie fresh out of the oven, it has no calories because everyone knows that the first cookie is the test and thus calorie free. However, calories are units of heat so wait for them to cool, there will be no calories.

2. If you drink a diet soda after eating your second cookie, it also has no calories because the diet soda cancels out the cookie calories.

3. If a friend comes over while you're making your Christmas cookies and needs to sample, you must sample with your friend. Because your friend's first cookie is calorie free, (rule #1) yours is also. It would be rude
to let your friend sample alone and, being the friend that you are, that makes your cookie calorie free.

4. Any cookie calories consumed while walking around will fall to your feet and eventually fall off as you move. This is due to gravity and the density of the caloric mass.

5. Any calories consumed during the frosting of the Christmas cookies will be used up because it takes many calories to lick excess frosting from a knife without cutting your tongue.

6. Cookies colored red or green have very few calories. Red ones have three and green ones have five - one calorie for each letter. Make more red ones!

7. Cookies eaten while watching "Miracle on 34th Street"
have no calories because they are part of the entertainment package and not part of one's personal fuel.

8. As always, cookie pieces contain no calories because the process of breaking causes calorie leakage.

9. Any cookies consumed from someone else's plate have no calories because the calories rightfully belong to the other person and will cling to their plate. We all know how calories like to CLING!

10. Any cookies consumed while feeling stressed have no calories because cookies used for medicinal purposes NEVER have calories. It's a rule!

So, enjoy those Christmas Cookies - we get them only this time of year!

Check these out!

I will be adding these to the website this weekend. Let me know below if you need a tag once there are loaded.

Created some labels and planner stickers today as I am prepping school supplies and a calendar for my youngest that will start Kindergarten soon.

What are you doing on this beautiful Saturday?

Blankets and bags…can you have too many? 🤣

Here is that canvas tote that I mentioned last week that is for the teachers. If you aren’t a teacher, I think these would be great for teacher gifts for Christmas, Teacher Appreciation, or just because.

Snag one for your favorite teacher here:

✨ Woohoo! Wednesday is here! ✨

We are halfway to the weekend! 🤣🤣 I am definitely a multiple alarms type of person. I am also a random alarms type of person, like to pick the kids up from school, otherwise I may be focused on what I am doing and lose track of time.

What about you? How do you like your alarms?

Where are my teachers at? Are you back in school now preparing for the new year to start soon? Is it almost time for "meet the teacher" night or "open house" before school starts?

This tee would be perfect for the first day of school and all year as a reminder of how your students can impact your life (and vice versa).

✨ Happy Monday! ✨

Can you believe that today is the LAST day of JULY? 🤯 As we start another week, and soon another month, remember that the day is what you make it - is the glass half full or half empty? You get to choose.

Share a smile with someone; it may brighten their day. Maybe they are like me, always losing my to-do list. 😉

✨ Back to School Time ✨

We will be adding some back to school items to the website this week. Since teachers have to start back to school before the kids, we will add them to the website first, too. 😉

Do we have request for any specific grade for back to school items?

To celebrate our teachers, send us a message with your favorite AND least favorite things about teaching and we will send you a special discount code.
