> At the heart of cooking is the idea that when we take care of others, especially those less well off, not only do their lives become better, but our life becomes richer too. Somewhere along the almost one million years humans have cooked for each other, we discovered our humanity. It's the best discovery ever.
> 
> These last couple of years, especially the months before and since November's election, have been hard times for our shared humanity. Whatever has happened to our country and our world in recent years, for so long it's seemed nothing could stand in the way of the forces that paved the way to last November's election, and have capitalized on the election since. But this week, all the checks and balances and human decency built into our nation finally, for at least the moment, have stopped the slide. There is always hope, but for too long now, hope has lived in the far off distance. This week hope got a whole lot closer.

> To celebrate, and bring attention to this turning point hard-won by so many, we are offering for free ten of our Embrace Hope Stickers (5 big and 5 small) for the asking in our stores. Online, if you would like the stickers, no need to place them in your cart, simply use the code HOPE while at our checkout page and they will be added automatically without charge. If you would like just the stickers, a $1 shipping and handling fee applies. If you buy other items, there are the standard shipping fees, but regular shipping is free with $30 spending. And don't forget our really reasonable price on our Teacher's gift boxes as well. Teachers’ humanity makes such a difference in our world and deserves appreciation, too.

> And also, our Janesville, Wisconsin store opened yesterday! As you may know, Janesville is the seat of the first Wisconsin district that is home to America's Speaker of the House. Janesville has, in many ways, for years been at ground zero to the forces behind the impact the rest of the nation only felt with last November's election. And while, like the rest of the first Wisconsin district and much of the country as well, Janesville originally saw hope in the Speaker, they've long ago come to understand and reject the forces the Speaker now represents. Somehow through our Janesville store we hope to gain some of their understanding, and share it with the country. Good recipes, too.

> And thanks for being cooks. In times like these, cooks make all the difference. Giving of ourselves to take care of those in need, especially our elders, our very young, and those struggling to be healthy, is the way we cooks know we are a real family, here in Janesville and across our country. In restoring our humanity, cooks really do heal the world.
