Are We Ready for Prime Time?

We're heading into our second (long, and somewhat stressful) week here at the bread + butter project, and our first press story is hitting local newsstands and mailboxes today. We're all very excited. If you're joining us for the first time, as a result of the great article in the Daily News, Welcome!

Please take a few minutes to browse our blog, read some of our earlier posts, and visit our e-store. If you're not already familiar with the project, Sue's first post is a good place to start. Because this is a project that is unfolding every day, we hope you will bookmark our site and check back from time to time, become a fan of the bread + butter project on facebook, and tell all of your friends and family members to visit our blog.

While we don't want to encourage unwanted spamming, it is for a good cause. So go ahead, forward our link: http://www.breadandbutterproject.com/ to everyone in your 'contact' list and tell them that 50% of our net profits during the months of September and October will benefit the food pantry at Pettengill House, Inc. More nonprofit partners in more states will benefit in the months ahead.

For returning visitors, you'll definitely want to check out our new products, including sweatshirts (just in time for fall) and a great new bread + butter tote bag in our shop. Tune in tomorrow for the report from our third weekly 'business meeting' and find out if Emma's 'sign' ever really transformed into an agenda. I did notice it had been ripped off the refrigerator, but have no idea where it ended up. And, I'm a bit concerned that today is trash day....

  1. You guys are awesome!
    I looked at the newspaper this morning and said "hey, is that Katie!?!"
    (sorry Emma, I used to be in her class.)
    I've heard a lot of people say the want to do something, but not many have actually end up doing anything.
    My whole family is probably going to get T-shirts.
