She told me, “I’ve spent decades showing up for everyone else. Now it’s my turn.” That part hit hard. She saw that unicorn and thought,“What’s my version...
Dear Reader, My son messaged me recently, asking, “Would you like this pour-over coffee set for Mother’s Day?” It made me smile—I sent him that link a few months ago.We love craft coffee, strong opinions 😂, and thoughtful gifts.
