Honestly, it's hard to imagine getting by without six types of mustard. I say that completely without sarcasm.

Congrats to you (and Cheez-its should be everywhere)! The store looks lovely

Love it all. As a shy and unattractive child Eleanor Roosevelt lost both parents by the time she was ten. She was shuttled around to various relatives. She said that’s when she learned that if she could be useful, she’d be needed and accepted.

I have been following your exploits since you popped up so deliciously during COVID, and am so THRILLED to see you forging on with your dreams, making new ones...and feeding us with your love not only of cooking and all things food, but your love of life. Your writing is magnificent.

Though this is perfect as is, I could have continued reading about this journey for a long, long time (while in my car, needing to run errands, but so deeply moved by this piece I’d have shelved them until tomorrow). So beautifully written…. What a magical place to call your own. ✨

Wow Sis...this is taking horse and buggy to the next level. Just fantastic! ---what an exquisite and charming offering for your community...it looks and sounds just dreamy. And you found your people--- the Cheez-It/ Mustard crew. YES! Dang, I love them. And, do I have two jars of Clovis Dijon mustard in my frig right now? One plain and one with Herbes de Provence?? Maybe.

I love this! I’m on the literal other side of the country but I’ve always wanted to visit upstate NY and this is yet another good reason! I hope to be there in 2024 for the beans! The tinned fish! The mustards! All of it!

Great to see you carry Dutch Tony’s Chocolonely! I stopped buying their Dark Milk Pretzel Toffee because it was too addictive. I live in the Netherlands, so I don’t think I’ll ever visit your shop but it sure looks dreamy!!
