Part & Parcel: Kara Hammett - Canton Repository

Hammett hopes to add the very challenging gum paste flowers to her repertoire soon.Hammett’s local favorites:Most memorable spot: Canton Museum of Art. “I was able to go to the exhibit about working moms (Crowns: Crossing into Motherhood). It moved me. They talked about motherhood and balancing being artists and being mothers. I just resonated with it. I’m a mother of three boys, and finding yourself and keeping yourself when you transition into motherhood is very difficult. I was crying because it hit me in a way that nobody really talks about.”Favorite place to shop locally:  Anew Room. “It’s a really cool spot. We bought a house here this year, and we purchased pictures and some furniture from there. I got a really cool piece of art from a Jackson High School student from there. They have some very unusual things because they come from people’s homes. You’re not going to find the same thing twice when you go there.”Favorite lunch spot: The Twisted Olive. “It’s pretty there. The dining rooms are nice, and the service is always really good and the food is really good. The grounds are beautiful.”Favorite coffee shop: Muggswigz. “Before I moved to Canton, I would drive a half-hour from Akron to Muggswigz. … A lot of people in my family love coffee and always are on the hunt for local coffee spots. I met (my aunt) there one Sunday and I was hooked.” Studio Bakery carries Muggswigz coffee.Favorite local restaurant: Lucca Downtown. “It’s a really quaint restaurant. It’s not a chain restaurant. I like to go to places where you are supporting local businesses, and the food is really, really good.”Favorite thing to do: Pottery. “I did it for years, and then had kids. I just picked... https://www.cantonrep.com/story/lifestyle/food/2021/02/09/studio-bakery-co-owner-kara-hammett-shares-her-local-favorites/4074529001/

Florists, symbols of hope, deemed "essential businesses" in virus-stricken Geneva - Famagusta Gazette

Faced with a worsening COVID-19 situation, the Swiss canton of Geneva entered semi-confinement on Nov. 2. All restaurants, bars and barbershops are now closed, but “essential” shops, such as grocery stores, supermarkets and flower shops, can remain open.Why are florists considered “essential businesses,” one may wonder?A recent survey conducted by JardinSuisse showed that although most of the celebrations and festivals have been canceled, 70 percent of the country’s florists said that their sales were better in the first half of 2020 than in the same period of last year.Migros, Switzerland’s largest supermarket chain, said that its flower sales in the first six months of this year were 20 percent higher than the previous year.Meanwhile, another recent survey conducted by PostFinance, the financial services unit of Swiss Post, found that Swiss consumers’ spending on clothing and footwear has fallen by 50 percent and some 80 percent, respectively, since the country adopted containment measures to fight the virus in March.“Flowers help peop... http://famagusta-gazette.com/2020/11/19/florists-symbols-of-hope-deemed-essential-businesses-in-virus-stricken-geneva/

Texas Florist Who Admitted to Being in Pelosi’s Office Wants Case Moved from D.C. Because of ‘Cancel Culture’ - Law & Crime

Washington, D.C. because of “cancel culture.” The defense for Texas florist Jenny Louise Cudd, who was on video happily admitting to being in the office of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, asserted authorities were creating the “illusion” of a conspiracy between her and Eliel Rosa by linking their cases.“According to the Government’s Statement of Facts, the two were seen on security footage walking into the building, walking around, and walking out,” attorney Marina Medvin said in a filing Wednesday. “There is no evidence of communications or a plan between the two to enter the Capitol. Instead, the evidence is purported to be that they were at the same place, at the same time, followed a crowd into the open doors of the Capitol building, then walked out. They didn’t take anything, they didn’t break anything.”Cudd was among rioters raiding the U.S. Capitol Building on Jan. 6, after then-President Donald Trump continued to lie that he actually won the 2020 presidential election. The invaders postponed but did not prevent Congress for counting electoral college votes weighing in favor of the real winner, Preside... https://lawandcrime.com/u-s-capitol-siege/texas-florist-who-admitted-to-being-in-pelosis-office-wants-case-moved-from-d-c-because-of-cancel-culture/
