Champaign, OH:  He's Gone


Nothin’ left to do but smile, smile, smile…
(He’s Gone-Grateful Dead)

I’m not going to lie…it’s been a week! It’s been a day in, day out, big huge irritation. Daily. Testing my patience. Making me practice my big smiles. Testing my ability to just stay calm.

Nothing huge or earth shattering, but sure enough…each day. Smile.

I have a good friend who tells us to put it in a bubble and let it go. Just as I did, I was sending another bubble, and another….it was a free for all of bubbles. Music festival like bubbles.

So, yes….smile, smile, smile. It helps. Turn up the music, chat with a friend, laugh, dance, pour a glass of wine….whatever calms you after a week like this. Just let that stuff go. Pronto! Smile!

It’s so nice to know that after a week like this, easy street is just one block away, with kindness very near.

That’s what our little local market is all about. Helping you smile, giving you a break, making it all easy. Groovy. Steady.

I am opening the market for the week. Take advantage of all we have to offer!

Peace, Love, and Forever Grooviness…

Dothan, Alabama:  Market Late Breaking Announcement


No rain, warmer temps and the good Lord’s blessing has produced STRAWBERRIES!!!!

Which means we’ll have fresh picked, locally grown, sustainable, chemical free beautiful and delicious berries available at the Market tomorrow for customers who pick up and anyone else who wants to run by.

There are a couple of pounds of early RHUBARB as well for anyone interested. The Mr. who picked it tells me he’d be perfectly content to eat it himself, but he knows people have been asking for it.

Blessings to all,
Ros
