Founder's Corner

Hey Friends.

This is Vol. 5 of The Weekly Light, which means we officially passed the 1-Month mark, and that's worth celebrating!

We've been loving the replies you've been sending us, and it's such a treat to hear that you're actually cooking some of our favorite recipes, discovering new music, etc.

This reply really sums it up, and it's our absolute favorite so far:

"I just found my new favorite song, while cooking my new favorite recipe, and I'm still smiling from what you wrote this week. What?! Keep these emails coming please!"

What's better than that?

We're sharing more about who we are, and in the process, we're learning more about who you are and what makes you happy.

That's what community is all about, and we're grateful that you're on the other end, sharing in the groove with us.

So, we'll echo the above and send it right back to you:

We're still smiling from what you wrote this week. Keep those emails coming please!

What We're Listening To

The Art of Loving
Olivia Dean

Olivia Dean’s new album The Art of Loving is a heartfelt look at love in all its forms, from romance to friendship to self-love. Her smooth vocals and soulful sound make every song feel warm and straight from the heart.

Some of my favorite songs so far are “Let Alone The One You Love” and “Baby Steps”. What are yours?

From Our Table To Yours

Spicy (Or Not) Salmon Crunch Bowls

This recipe is a big-time favorite at our house.

Whether you go spicy or keep it mellow, it’s a fun mix of textures and flavors that always feels like a nice break from the routine meals.

It’s the kind of dish that feels special enough for a treat-yourself night, but comes together fast, with easy ingredients, so it never feels like a chore.

Product News

Good news, hat lovers!

After a longer-than-expected delay thanks to tariffs, our bestselling hats (in both kids & adult sizes) are finally back in stock.

Here's the thing, though - thanks to all of your preorders, we've already sold through a lot of what just arrived!

We'll do everything we can to get more in stock before the holiday rush, but....just know that our inventory is moving fast and a lot of our bestselling styles will likely sell out again soon!

Quote of the Week

He said that when things are going really well we should be sure to notice it.

He was talking about very simple occasions, not great victories.

Maybe drinking lemonade under a shade tree, or smelling the aroma of a bakery, or fishing, or listening to music coming from a concert hall while standing in the dark outside, or, dare I say, after a kiss.

He told me that it was important at such times to say out loud, 'If this isn't nice, what is?

- Kurt Vonnegut
