"Even If I did absolutely everything I could to make a difference, from now till eternity, it would still not be enough to thank my parents for who they were"

LIVING MY BEST VACATION TERI LIFE IN MY LA BLANCA BATHING SUIT
|
|
About 14 months ago, I embarked on what I called my Year of Health. It’s been a real time-out as I’ve discovered that my health includes my home, my sleep, my hydration, my exercise, and my inability to slow down. Don’t open a box unless you really want to see what’s in it! More than you can imagine will be illuminated, and such has been the case for me.

MY FRIENDS CHAD AND DOM (WITH HER AMAZING LA BLANCA SUIT)
|
|
The journey has stretched from one year into two, and I know enough to know I pretty much don’t know anything! In truth, I’ve learned so much, and although I’m not exactly where I wanted to be when I began in 2021, I’m excited to see where the next ten months will take me and what I will learn. My hope is that you too have already embarked on your own Year of Health.

IT ALL STARTED WITH ONE MARINATED ONION BOWL...
|
|
Over the last 14 months, I’ve come to learn that while saying yes is important, saying no is also important. In addition, I’ve learned to embrace what I’m letting go of, and today that means ending production of the current nocrumbsleft pottery collection we’ve come to love. What started as one item with one glaze four and a half years ago has become 20 items with 15 glazes—more than 300 items! There’s a major difference between offering a single Marinated Onion Bowl and creating, manufacturing, and maintaining the inventory of a 300-piece collection.

I AM SO PROUD OF THE BEAUTIFUL COLLECTION WE'VE CREATED
|
|
It has been such a joy to curate this brilliant collection of kitchen jewelry. As the pottery became more and more popular, the team and I consciously decided to move forward for as long as we were having a great time—and we certainly did! The pottery has been the rhythm of my life for almost five years. I love sharing it and having contests, giveaways, and pay it forwards. It’s been my greatest joy to share this beautiful collection. But two years of covid, complicated by more recent supply chain issues and shortages, have made it more of a challenge than a joy, so the collaboration that created our beautiful collection has come to a close.

PATTY BOWLS WILL ALWAYS HAVE MAGIC
|
|
It’s been so much fun for me to name pieces after my parents and other dear ones, and even more fun to share their names with the world. Even though the current collection will no longer be sold, I will continue to embrace the magic it has created.

IT WAS SUCH AN HONOR TO SAY FRED'S NAME EVERY DAY
|

All good things must end, and I know that there is a gift in recognizing when the moment has arrived. In another world, we would have loved to have given you the opportunity to complete your collections and order your last pieces, but unfortunately that’s not how it has worked out. Excitingly enough as early as next week, we will be selling some of the overage and regularly priced items, (Chicago local pickup will be available for some items or DM me for a virtual item tour). In addition, we will also be having an imperfect items sale, so watch for those details in your inbox! We are also expecting other collaborations in the future, and are certainly going to be creating short-run, capsule collections; be sure to keep your eyes peeled!

NAMED AFTER HIS FATHER, HURLEY, FRED WOULD HAVE LOVED THIS PLATE
|
|
The team and I are excited and enthusiastic about what’s to come. It’s time to trust the magic of new beginnings, as Meister Eckhart said. We will share more about it as we know more! Meanwhile, we are so delighted that you’ve come along for the ride with us. I’ve been in Mexico this week unplugging as much as I can, but I sure hope you’ve enjoyed following along on the journey!

I AM SO PROUD TO HAVE NAMED THIS BEAUTIFUL BOWL AFTER MY LOVE

In this episode of my Table Talks podcast I was happy to sit down with MaryRuth Ghiyam of MaryRuth’s Organics, one of my favorite female founders and the maker of my favorite supplements. We talk about how we first met, how MaryRuth began her business, how she’s growing it, intermittent fasting, time blocking, and being a working parent. Plus, she shares about her new book, Liquids till Lunch: 12 Small Habits that Will Change Your Life for Good. Like me, she cares about making a difference and loves giving gifts! She’s definitely changed mine! We have a real connection, and this podcast shines a beautiful light on it. Let me know what you think! By the way, for all of your MaryRuth's Organics needs, shop this link for 20% off, or use the code Teri20.
