In reply to Erica. Enthusiastic agreement! 99.9% of the time there's an alternative to Amazon. You can get that Bissel vacuum at Best Buy.

In reply to Candice. I also appreciate being able to see what you've been up to on Instagram (since I do not have an account). I'm not used to reels--is there a way to slow it down so I can see each image for a bit longer?

In reply to Erica. 100%. I'm a long time reader and totally expect sponsored links and purchase suggestions. But when nine times out of ten it's linked to Amazon or Target, it's just like... can we branch out? These companies are actively funding or folding to Trump's agenda - it really does matter where are individual dollars go; do we want to support their horrible regime when there are often easy alternatives? At minimum, books should be purchased anywhere but Amazon! EHD team, what do you think?

In reply to Lia. Agree. Because of these issues, it’s not my first choice for donations, but it is hardly for profit. As many people have attested here in the comments, they certainly help individuals.

Caitlin, thank you for introducing us to Brenda. I’ve enjoyed getting to know her over the years and your relationship warms my heart. I am so sorry for your loss. We will all miss her.

In reply to Debbie. Weird! This morning it just kept redirecting me to Instagram and the App Store, but I tried again and they worked!

In reply to Sarah. I was able to see the Instagram posts without having an account just by clicking on them.

I came here to echo the comments on Goodwill and ask EHD to correct the post. It is irresponsible to have something factually wrong so close to the beginning of the post and expect readers to scroll all the way to the comments to see the correct information.

I think it also distracts from the very worthy organization you’re trying to highlight.

If anyone if wondering why some might be skeptical of Goodwill, particularly people in Portland – you might want to go read the wikipedia article on it. There has been significant controversy. Being a non-profit is not a guarantee of good practices.

In reply to Lia. Agree, I miss the house tour! I loved this townhouse by Emma Ainscough. houseandgarden.co.uk/gallery/emma-ainscough-chelsea-house
