Someone just tagged this post from November 2024. Maybe I should do a signed paperback giveaway? I'll pick one at 5 pm CST tomorrow at random from the likes. You don't even have to follow or repost ... but it would be nice if you did!

This time of year, my brain is always about 10% thinking about "Christmas Wrapping." I haven't heard the song yet in the wild, but it always excites me when I do. A few years ago, I wrote about the song's greatness! anniezaleski.substack.com/p/the-greatn...
the greatness of the waitresses' "christmas wrapping"
"A&P has provided me / With the world's smallest turkey"

I don’t normally read the comments, but these ones give me hope. I know we are all seeing a lot of hate toward our Somali friends and neighbors, but I wanted to share these.
I hope they bring a smile to your face like they did mine.

Some exciting news from Milk Barn Farm! Today we are releasing our first tincture specifically for daytime use: Sunny Day with CBG.

Limited Edition Tincture: Sunny Day CBG
CBG is a minor cannabinoid. Like CBD, it's nonintoxicating and helps with pain and anxiety. Unlike CBD, it won't make you drowsy, so it's good for daytime!
