Treasure of the Week!


Today's treasure is a bit unconventional. It's not a product, something I found or something I made. Nope.

Each month I go to gatherings called "The Red Tent". It is an amazing space for women to be together, share stories, and just be. There may be singing, dancing, crying, laughing, and a general sense of fulfillment and acceptance. I highly recommend it.

Is that the treasure you ask? Well it's how I figured it out, but for more info on the Red Tent -

(fyi- the Just For Fans tab has a link to find a Red Tent near you!)

Which leads me to the treasure of the week. You. Everyone is their own treasure and sometimes we forget to celebrate that. You are a treasure to many.

It was kind of a short and sweet Treasure of the Week - but I felt it deserved special mention. Enjoy, be well and much love!

Treasure of the Week!

Today we highlight a wonderful item made by a dear friend. Honestly, they could all be the treasure of the week, but I decided to showcase this lil' guy.
His name? Zauwphryus Mwerphysg.
The design of this character is just beyond cool. The colors and design evoke a super sea monster feel, and the story of the character is also told on the Etsy website. Yep, he's available ladies and gents - right on Etsy!
This is my buddy Jenn's shop. Here you will find monsters a-plenty to welcome into your home. All come with their own personalities and stories, and beautifully handmade! Check them out and enjoy!

Treasure of the Week - (late, I know)

What???? I waited until Tuesday to post the Monday "Treasure of the Week?" What was I thinking? Monday was super busy this week - posting new items, crafting and creating, and some miscellaneous business stuff. But I digress. On to the fun stuff!
Today's find was at the grocery store. Green Planet Grocery in Syracuse to be exact (love you guys!) Honestly, this place could be a treasure of the week all by themselves; helpful and friendly staff, great selection and cool deals abound.
But the treasure was to be found at the checkout counter. Now readers, to give you a bit of background, I recently went vegan and love buying organic. I also used to love "commercial" peanut butter cups. But alas, they are not vegan or sustainably produced. What is a girl to do?
Well, you find these!
Justin's Organic (and vegan!) Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups!
(they also come in the milk chocolate variety)
Amazing! Superb! Out of this World!! Thank you Justin's for making my day!
So that's what I did today. Have an adventurous and creative week! Watch for new posts coming soon!
