I can't believe I still have food growing. We finally gave in to the cold and took the tomatoes in to ripen in a paper bag, but the chard seems healthy. I have NOOO idea if the Brussels sprouts will sprout . . . but here's hoping.⁠⠀

Anyone else growing anything out there?

My Pearl story is much like so many others. A story about someone who was so kind, so generous, and so aware of someone in need.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I first met Pearl in 2007 when I was in WAY over my head and she was sooooo my hero. I had just quit theatre with this wacky idea that I could make knitting my career. I had taken over managing a yarn shop in the West Village. Little did I know when I took it over that it was hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt and there were creditors calling me daily. I had NO idea what I was doing. A few months after I took it over, I went to TNNA (our trade show) for the first time as a buyer. The shop had no money so I could only afford to stay two nights at a cheap motel a 15 min walk from the convention center. I didn't know anyone, the sales floor overwhelmed me and I was pretty much on the verge of tears the entire time. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I went to the retailer's luncheon (but couldn't afford the lunch part, so I just sat in the back) and Pearl was sitting at one of the tables near the back. She saw my badge and recognized the shop name, and introduced herself. She was the first person who spoke to me that weekend and I must have seemed so needy because she sat and talked to me for about 45 min. She gave me her tips of how to approach the shop floor and she gave me her card and told me if I ever had questions when I was back in New York, that I should give her a call. I took her up on that a few times, and she became one of my favorite people.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Pearl didn't view my shop, or any other shop, as "competition". She believed in doing what she did well and that a rising tide lifts all boats. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Several years later I was working at another yarn store and it was Knitty City's 5th anniversary. I send a big basket of cookies and a card from our whole staff. Someone at the yarn company I was working for at the time asked "why are you sending a gift basket to your competition?" I just smiled and said, Pearl has no competition. ⁠⠀
