Weekend Open Thread

We have a sweet story for today’s open thread. A photographer found an honor store with a very cute manager.

I drove into deepest, darkest Bryan, Texas to buy some real honey. One picks their honey on the front porch of the beekeeper and leaves money in the jar or uses one of the bank applications to transfer the funds directly to the keeper.

a cat stands on a table next to bottles of honey. A sign behind the bottles reads "Honey, Honor System"
Or you could leave a can of tuna and I’ll forget I ever saw you.
