Penzeys' Choose Love Mug [View all]

I used a fisheye effect for this photo. Before digital photography I would have used a fisheye lens. As was the case with the special lens, the digital fisheye can lose its effectiveness if overused.
I'm a longtime Penzeys Spices customer. The company's been attacked by Trump and right wing media following Kamala's visit to Penzeys' Pittsburgh store last month. Here's an excerpt from the company's message this morning.

Gonna keep this one short. We speak out all year long in defense of those today’s Republicans seek to hurt. This comes with real costs. You supporting us this time of year by buying and sharing $50 Gift Cards for just $35 really-really helps. Thanks!
Also ending tomorrow, regularly $5.95 Outrage of Love Seasoning for just $2, plus a $3.19 tasty Florida Seasoned Pepper of Hope and $3.95 I Will Vote 11.5.24 pin both free with any purchase.
Plus to sweeten the deal, buy three or more $50 Gift Cards for just $35 and we will include a $9.95 Choose Love Mug. Ten or more and we will include our $24.95 Hug Blanket. You want these. Both so very well represent all the goodness that comes from caring about each other. Kamala cooks. Cooks care. Imagine having one of us in the White House. How can this even be close?
No coupons or codes are needed for any of these offers. Each is automatic for everyone.
And please don’t forget you can get these same deals in our stores. We are much quicker at shipping gift cards than five weeks ago. But if you can pick up your gift cards today or tomorrow in one of our stores that certainly helps take the pressure off the mail order side of Penzeys. Plus we’ve got such great store people, too. Show them some love. Thanks!
And special thanks to everyone who emailed photos of your pets in Choose Love Bandanas to editor@penzeys.com. There’s something about the former president lying about Black immigrants and endangering their lives by falsely claiming they are eating family pets that has pet owners sending us lots of great photos.
You don’t suppose that out of all the backgrounds of all the immigrants that make the melting pot that is America, he’s making up disparaging lies about Black immigrants from the Caribbean because Vice President Harris’s dad just so happens to be a black immigrant from the Caribbean? No, I’m sure this is just a coincidence, wink-wink.
And Republican voters aren’t racists. It’s just that they never met a racist they didn’t want to vote for. We point out obvious things. That has costs. $50 Gift Cards for $35 helps cover those costs.

Thanks also for keeping us in business.
Love you as well,
