How Bears Deal with Adultitis

by Jason 08.31.2006 Adultitis

So I got this photo from a friend of a friend of a friend who lives in Alaska (and saw Ferris pass out at 31 Flavors last night). They bought a play structure, set it all up, and awoke the next morning to find it already in use. Which proves the point that even bears [...]

by Jason 08.29.2006 Kim & Jason News

I wanted to give all loyal readers of this blog a hearty heads up about a sale we’re running at the Kim & Jason Lemonade Stand. We rarely run big discount sales, but alas, we’re working on a brand new candle line and we need to clear the shelves. The old ones are still the [...]

by Kim 08.27.2006 Kim's Random Musings

I have a confession to make.
I can be an emotional eater. Ya know, when you have had a rough day or something is bothering you, and you seek out foods that will make it all better. Some of my favorites are brownies, ice cream (put them together and it’s even better), macaroni and cheese, [...]

Go See Chipmunks and Stuff

by Jason 08.23.2006 Delight in the Little Things

The summer days are growing shorter, and the kids are going back to school. For many parents, it is a welcome relief and the beginning of a long-awaited oasis of some peace and quiet. Of course children are a blessing, but they can certainly cause a disruption as well. Us grown-ups tend to like things [...]

The Power of Far-Flung Flourishes

by Jason 08.22.2006 Dream Big

Today I had a chance to have lunch with a good friend. We try to get together every few months or so, and when we do, we’re a couple of Chatty Cathys. We finally got up to leave as the dinner crowd started coming in. We’re both entrepreneurs at heart, and big dreamers.
