What's in a name?
I considered going with Odder when Older, which I'm told describes me well, but wasn't the perfect vibe for a shop. And Baubles and Bibelots (the "WTF is a bibelot?" looks nixed that one). And Curiouser Curiosities (hard to say three times fast). And The Whatnot Mercantile (but whatnots are the unimportant extras and damn if I wasn't making important stuff). And, and, and...
Merriam Webster to the rescue. A Curio is "something considered novel, rare, or bizarre." The secondary definition offers that it can be "an unusual or bizarre person." Bingo! I make things that are novel, rare, and occasionally bizarre! I'm unusual! I'm (occasionally) bizarre! Shhhh. Rarely. And I hide it well.
But curios also had a slightly old lady connotation. Who else owns a curio cabinet, or even knows what one is? How do I infuse a bit of whimsy, a touch of panache?
Curios and Milk
It makes me smile, and think back on the many, many meals of Cheerios and milk that dotted my childhood. Curios and Milk resides at the intersection of nostalgia, whimsy, and breakfast carbs. Right where I want to live.
