Oh that looks dangerously tasty! I always try to make conversation with people and find out about their lives. When someone asks how I’m doing, I give an honest answer, and if someone replies to my “how are you?” with “fine”, I ask if they’re really doing well. It’s funny how people do a double take and then share what’s actually happening in their life.

Trying to think of an excuse to make these (I can’t just bake/ make sweets for the heck of it – I’ll eat them all). YUM.

When I was growing up, my parents were the type that always struck up conversations with total strangers, whether they were clerks, salespeople, or other customers standing in line somewhere. It was fairly embarrassing to me as a teenager, but now that I’m grown I find I do the same thing (!), and as an adult I see the reason for it: we’re all riders on the same train, as Springsteen puts it. I’ll bet I’ve embarrassed my own kids a time or two but I hope I’m passing along to them the importance of reaching out to others, if only for a moment or a smile.

BTW, great looking dessert!

Lisa, I think so too. The little stores are those who make different places feel special. If it was all just chain stores everywhere we go it would be totally … no point in going anywhere.

matt: yes, dogs, and kids too

Dana: Oh, I can’t tell. She wouldn’t want me to tell who she is so I have to keep it anonymous.
But the story is beyond that specific woman. There are many people around us who struggle to make a living or having a hard time without us knowing or being aware of it. We need to support each other more, care and be more interested in people and support our local small businesses in general.
Thanks for your intention and caring.

That is a really touching story about the cashier! I’m of the shy type, so these sort of exchanges are rare for me. My wife and I were just talking the other day about how bringing our dog out with us makes people open up about so many (non-dog) things!

Oh yeah, and the tea biscuits look wonderful
