💜 Proud of all the local Minnesota small businesses who are heeding the call.

Minneapolis small business owners and artists right now:
Holding the whole city together with duct tape, coffee, community love… and whatever inventory we can keep stocked.

It feels chaotic out here. It feels uncertain. And a lot of folks are doing everything they can just to keep their doors open while also showing up for their neighbors.

So yeah, we might joke about it but truly this is the moment to support your local artists, makers, restaurants, bookstores, studios, musicians, and markets.

Follow them.
Share their posts.
Buy a gift.
Commission a piece.
Tell your friends.
Pop in and say hi.

Minneapolis runs on small businesses and creative people. Always has.

And thank you to everyone who has shopped our online store while we shift back into our storefront Monday through Thursday. We are so grateful for the love and patience. We will continue offering pickup options to make things easy and accessible for our community.

Chi migwetch for standing with us and other small local business 🖤

Bookstores are an important staple of our community here in Minnesota. Much love to all of our local bookstores as we weather this ICE storm.
💜🐰

I'm overwhelmed...would be an understatement. I truly appreciate all the words and actions of support people have shown. DreamHaven is a small operation; we're closed on Sundays (I rest sometimes) and our website is not used to handling so many orders. We'll be back in the store on Monday morning and we'll be happy to sort out everyone's orders, questions and comments then. Until then, I'm resting up a bit and calming myself down from my anger and sadness. Be well and safe everyone.

“The Bear Who Carried the Moon Rabbit”

Long ago, when the stars were young,
And the sky had not yet learned silence,
Bear walked alone through the forest of beginnings—
Great and black as midnight's breath.

But Bear was not empty.
Inside his chest, a small light pulsed:
The spirit of Rabbit,
Born from the first moon’s heartbeat.

Rabbit was the Listener,
Keeper of paths unseen.
It was he who taught Bear
To dream while waking,
To follow the wind without question.

Together they crossed the sky’s first snowfall,
Chanted to rivers until they sang,
Danced with the trees until they wept leaves of gold.

People say:
When the world forgets,
When the balance breaks,
Bear rises again with Rabbit glowing in his chest,
To remind the land of old stories—
And teach the night to breathe.

So when you see a shadow deep and quiet,
And the stars shimmer like drumbeats,
Know this:
Bear still walks.
And Rabbit still listens.
And the story has never ended.

“Socrates said, “The misuse of language induces evil in the soul.” He wasn’t talking about grammar. To misuse language is to use it the way politicians and advertisers do, for profit, without taking responsibility for what the words mean. Language used as a means to get power or make money goes wrong: it lies. Language used as an end in itself, to sing a poem or tell a story, goes right, goes towards the truth. A writer is a person who cares what words mean, what they say, how they say it. Writers know words are their way towards truth and freedom, and so they use them with care, with thought, with fear, with delight. By using words well they strengthen their souls. Story-tellers and poets spend their lives learning that skill and art of using words well. And their words make the souls of their readers stronger, brighter, deeper.”
~ Ursula K. Le Guin
