I don't do the Black Friday thing, never have. Instead, I am doing Plaid Friday with @yarnfolk.com and supporting other small businesses! 🧶

Our insurance costs (home, health and auto) have gone up substantially this year. The increase is equivalent to some people's mortgages. I don't know how people are surviving this. Talking a lifetime of frugality being erased by greed.

Hawthorn’s very name speaks of its role as the guardian of old boundaries; “haw” comes from haeg, meaning hedge, so it is literally the “hedge-thorn”. Its crimson fruits carried many country names: haws, eglets, hazles, halves, hograves, gazels, hoggins and skeehories. #folklore

On this day 225 years ago, John Adams moved into the still-not-quite-complete White House, becoming the first president to occupy it. His blessing was carved into the State Dining Room mantel in 1945: "May none but Honest and Wise Men ever rule under This Roof.”

Married her yesterday.
I asked my girlfriend if there was anything she wanted from the store and the first thing she asked was, “how is our cheese situation.” I’m going to marry this woman.
