Irish Coffee (https://www.haldecraft.com/products/ Irish Coffee (https://www.haldecraft.com/products/irish-coffee). Browns are among your favorite colors, but not just any flat brown will do. You like that tonal, multi-shade that you see right when the creamer hits your coffee, before you stir it in and little light tendrils are making their way through the dark coffee.

These One Hit Wonders (https://www.haldecraft.com/ These One Hit Wonders (https://www.haldecraft.com/products/one-hit-wonder) will be available for another day or so; I'll probably switch them out late Sunday afternoon, and show them off here on Monday!

What would you see if you made eye contact with those hollow, ancient, cataract-ridden, lonely eyes? What gift would you be giving someone to just say hello, to hear them? To hold space for them for even just a moment? How less lonely would they feel? Would you feel?
