Kanibal Home is having a stoop & shop sale today. This means more than just shopping: There will be q&a with their jeweler about estate jewelry; mini cones and ice cream sandwiches from Milk Sugar Love, and adoptable dogs for you to pet (a natural anxiety-reliever). A portion of the day’s profits will go to See Spot Rescued for pup Stacy’s surgery after a hit-and-run accident.
Come out to celebrate a good cause!
