update: just the contest

By -
It's come to our attention that our awesome-as-hell 100th post is a little on the long side, so Tex and I have decided to cut you kids a break and re-post the contest information on its own. Entries will be accepted in the comments of both this post and all prep everything.

Because we love you, Tex and I want to help you on your journey to being well-kempt and adorable, so we're excited to announce that in honor of our 100th post  we're having our very first giveaway.

The prize: a $20 gift certificate to Chesapeake Ribbon Co. 
Purveyor of all things cute and grosgrain (belts, key fobs, dog collars, headbands, and more), Chesapeake Ribbon Co reminds us of ribbon shopping after school, lacrosse tryouts, and also the belt whose arrival I'm anxiously awaiting (because as any proper Baltimore girl can tell you: Pink Flamingos are clutch).

To win: leave us a story in the comments that you think best exemplifies 'all prep everything.' 
Entries must be in by 11.59pm on March 21st, and should include a name and email address where the winner can be reached. Tex and I will notify the winner by the following Friday.

Good luck!

Black Lives Matter: A Call to Allies

2020 has been a hell of a year so far. Against the backdrop of a pandemic has come an actual nationwide uprising for real equity. So in honor of the work that's been done, and the work that's left to do, we're giving you a  Juneteenth  gift: a three part series of resources to help yourself and others be better activists and advocates for racial justice. Part 1 is a post dedicated to organizations doing great work and resources to help you contribute. Part 2 focuses on BIPOC artisans and businesses. This is Part 3 : resources for allies, to help them confront white supremacy both internally and externally. After all, you can't dismantle something you're afraid to face head-on. First Step of Being an Ally: Do the Work For those who are allies (whether you're new to the fight or you've marched around the block before), the focus should be on educating yourself, examining your biases, and using your privilege to protect and amplify BIPOC voices and bo

After all, you can't dismantle something you're afraid to confront.  Organizations for Change There are hundreds of organizations who are working towards justice and equity, so this is by no means a definitive list, but here are some of our favorites (and feel free to suggest more in the comments).

It's finally come. The day you've been anticipating for 5 long years. The day Tex & Coda publish their  100th post ! And yes, you did that math right - we're averaging 20 posts a year . Bask in the glow of our tireless work ethic. We're celebrating with the post below and  - scroll down to see this - a giveaway! Now I'm afraid we're going to have to take a break from the celebrating for a few minutes because Tex and I have agreed that there's something we really need to talk to you about. So I'll just let her take the reins here for a bit while I have a mini-panic attack over  these shirts  selling out. -- Hello, muffin. So you're all about that age, and Coda and I have been wanting to sit you all down and have a very frank conversation. I know this might be a sensitive topic, but it's a necessary one and we're having this talk because you're all growing up, and Coda and I want to make sure that you're going to be making
