I shared this on Instagram already but this really bears repeating: yesterday I accidentally dropped and shattered this butter ornament in a gift shop. It’s not the nicest thing to do to a small business during a pandemic, and I did in fact pay for it and buy another, but my biggest regret is that and it did not even OCCUR to me until I’d reached my car that I should have said, WOW, I REALLY DO HAVE BUTTER FINGERS! Like, what have I even been training for? Should I go back and shout it through the store door? Why even be a part of a family text chain that’s 90 percent puns and Dad Jokes if not to Effortlessly nail moments such as these? Hindsight is 20/20 etc, but mostly: do consider supporting any one of your local gift shops this Christmas. I love few things more than wandering through a tiny store touching and breaking things. Let’s not give all of our dollars to Bezos this year. WE MUST DO BUTTER. THERE SHE IS!
