🐀🧈 SOME SHOPPERS THIS WEEK ARE GETTING… UNEXPECTED 🐀🧈 SOME SHOPPERS THIS WEEK ARE GETTING… UNEXPECTEDLY BUTTERED. 🧈🐀 No, we will not be explaining further. Starting this week, random shoppers at The Wandering Possum may discover a little squishy butter tucked into their bag as a surprise lagniappe while supplies last. ✨ And before someone panics in the comments: IT IS NOT REAL BUTTER. It’s the viral squishy butter everyone is obsessed with right now. 😂 Why are we doing this? Because life is weird. Because serotonin comes in butter form. Because the Possum said so. Shop weird. Get buttered. 📍 The Wandering Possum 440 Central Ave, Old Jefferson #TheWanderingPossum #UnexpectedlyButtered #SquishyButter #OldJefferson #ShopLocalNOLA #JeffersonParish #Lagniappe #BoutiqueShopping #FeralRetailEnergy #ShopSmallLouisiana #NewOrleansBoutique #PossumApproved

To all the moms, the bonus moms, the grandmas, the To all the moms, the bonus moms, the grandmas, the “I’ve had coffee reheated six times today” moms, the pet moms, the exhausted moms, the brand-new moms, and the moms whose babies are somehow suddenly taller than them... we hope today wraps around you a little softer. The work you do is often quiet. Repeated. Invisible in the moment. But it matters more than you know. We see the care, the protection, the late nights, the worrying, the showing up even when you’re running on fumes and stubbornness alone. Today, we hope the people you love make sure you feel loved too. May you get the biggest slice of cake today, not the tiny “mom piece.” May somebody else refill your drink for once. May you sit down while the food is still hot. And may the people you care for make sure you feel cared for too. Happy Mother’s Day from the Wandering Possum

Locals supporting locals! Julie and Rachel love su Locals supporting locals! Julie and Rachel love supporting local businesses and we are ABSOLUTELY tickled when other small businesses support ours. We had the pleasure of having Crystal the owner of Blush Boutique , she brought her family and it was a happy experience for us (I hope it was for her lol). So, the next time you need to do some clothing shopping, (she has the dumplings as well) consider supporting small and local and just good people. It helps ALL of us. PS there is a sequin crawfish top that has my name written all over it.... Tag other small businesses that you think we should all know more about and support! #ShopJeffersonLA #jeffersonparish #shopjefferson #supportjeffersonparish
