RBG's Legacy Lives On

We lost an iconic figure when Ruth Bader Ginsburg died last month. It’s hard to believe it’s already been 3 weeks since her death on September 18th. The daily whipsaw of news since then has left us all dizzy and wondering how we'll manage without her.
At HoonArts, we just received our latest order of new RBG Christmas ornaments a few days ago. Looking at these little gems set me thinking about RBG's legacy. That led to looking at some of her most memorable quotes, which in turn reminded me of just what a visionary advocate for women she was. RBG and the Fair Trade movement share many of the same ideals and dreams for the future.
And that inspired us to create some RBG Quote Cards for our fans to remind you that her legacy lives on. Here's a couple of samples.
If you would like to download the entire set of 12 iconic RBG Quote Cards, just click here. I'll just let her speak for herself.
And if you'd like a tangible symbol of RBG's legacy to go with those Quote Cards, you can order one of our adorable RBG Christmas Ornaments. We just received a new shipment. They won't last long, so order now.
And check out the RBG pin available from our dear friends at Dunitz & Company, a fellow Fair Trade Federation member. Click here for more information.
RBG is obviously an inspiration for so many people! And her legacy will live on. It's up to us to take up her challenge to come together to build a better future for all of us.

My husband and I were going to take a small ship cruise from Copenhagen to circumnavigate Iceland, and slowly explore the island and its beautiful natural environment with local guides.
Then we were going to spend almost a week in Dublin, getting in touch with our Irish heritage. I couldn't wait ...

My inbox and social media feeds are overflowing with ads from Amazon ("Prime Days"), Target ("Deal Days"), and Walmart ("Big Save") this week. Other big commerce companies are also flooding my advertising feeds, in hopes of jump-starting holiday shopping. And they all seem to be offering incredible "deals."
Sometimes, it just seems so much easier and convenient to hop onto their online site and grab one of those deals, especially if the shipping is free! Sadly, I've personally spent far more ...

I took the photo you see above during my morning walk today. What captured my interest was the little patch of leaves that were starting to turn red. Living in the high desert of New Mexico, we don't see a lot of trees turning red--it's usually only yellow and occasionally orange. So when I see leaves turning red, it's like a small touch of magic.
But what really inspired me this morning was the sudden thought that the leaves beginning to change color was a symbol that life does indeed go on...
