My Sweet Sojourn: Opportunity →
So proud of (and excited for!) my sister-in-law for making this next step…um, make that jump! julianneking: So, here I am. Two days, lots of boxes, and an eight-hour drive from making Louisville my new home for the next two years. At one moment I am excited about a new city, Graeter’s ice cream, snow, horse country, being back in school, meeting new people, and everything else that...

Churches face decreasing donations, more... →
I don’t agree with some of the things in this article— the main one being that the recession has “finally” caught up with churches.  I have seen mainline church budgets across the country cutting programming to meet budget demands for the last two years.  The first things to get cut from church budgets? Art, music and youth programming.   I do have first hand experience...

The History Place - Child Labor in America:... →
This collection of photos is chilling and fantastic.  In our consumer culture, it’s critical that we remember that the goods we buy have an origin.  It’s our responsibility to make sure that origin has just labor practices.  This Christmas, consider shopping Fair Trade— I like 10,000 Villages!  ;)

Bummerino Metropolis: H&M Has No Plans To Open in... →
Personally, I’m relieved.  There were all sorts of hip retail to be had five years ago whenever we’d tour away from the southeast…And now, every store is HERE with the exception of H&M.  The occasional show in NYC or ATL or LA or even Paris-last-summer will continue to find  me dropping by H&M by something “outrageously cheap and indisputably cute”…and...
