Lavender Dreams and Donuts

Honestly, this will be a confession of a tech illiterate. A year or so, a company called Donuts Inc. contacted me about our business, because of our unique domain name. I glanced at the letter, and wasn't really sure what they wanted to talk to me about, so I tossed the letter in the garbage. True confession. Fast forward another 6 months, and at a Holiday show that we were doing, a woman came up to our booth and introduced herself from the same company. They are all about promoting domains that are different domains than .com, .org, .net. She...

A Season of Expectation

We recently ended our last holiday show. It's always such a fun time of year, and I really enjoy meeting new customers, and connecting with returning friends. Everyone is happily looking for gifts for their friends, families and co-workers. It's a season of anticipation and expectation. Our lavender is trimmed and resting for the new spring growth. Our ewes have spent the last 2 months or so with the "boys", and are quietly growing our crop of spring lambs. Maybe a Grand Champion for our local 4H kids may be in the group! We are so happy to have snow!...
