the weather is weathering! 🌬️ ❄️ see you tomorrow!

It’s super cool the amount of women kicking ass at life generally. Womens history month every month always. Yes. And frozen food rules too!!!

It’s women’s history month too! Most if our vendors are from women owned companies at our shop :) including our window design illustrated by a woman. And all the vendors at our pop up last month.

I saw that on a tv at the gym and laughed, but it’s actually not even funny as to how much life would totally suck without it.

Freezers are a miracle for the household. Can you imagine how different life would be without this innovation?

Shoutout to the fact that it’s apparently national frozen food month

But. It is also women’s history month :) hell yeah and we love that too.

Freezers are so important. I could go on!!

8-2 today :) hellooo this coffee is good

Just sent a $215 donation over to them from the cash and donations through our square terminal, still taking donations and thank you everyone who has given thus far! Just wanted to be transparent here.
