So hookie this time of year

This year's no exception! I've met really cool people here in Earth Alley. Like just before closing on X-mas eve., this talented comic book artist, John, zoomed for gifts for his sister. She's been working hard writing her 1st children's novel. As he put it, "we're tight".

Another young guy with the coolist southern drawl, Curtis, stopped in, maybe for the the 3rd time, to get his dad's girlfriend who he hadn't met yet a unique gift & of course another for his really sweet wife who took a leave of absence to go to Tanzania to volunteer in an orphanage for a month. And, Beth & Bill whose children were so smart for their young years. These are just a few from the past few days.

Sentimental maybe & why not.

Shopping Happy for a Cause Tomorrow


My friend, Sara, is wonderful. Not only is she one of Earth Alley's greatest supporters, she is always gernerous with her co-workers & friends.

Sara has dedicated the past 30+ years to integrating special needs children in the County's school system. I am excited & proud to co-host an event tomorrow. Earth Alley will donated a percentage of the evening profit to the Autism Society.
