What's in a name? It's a question I hear thrown around a lot. A few days ago, I asked myself that very question: What is in a name? At the time of my musings, we were photographing our zoned latex mattress, called the Madrona. Now, I'm not one to dwell in the realm of the abstract, so I decided to apply my musings to the physical and narrowed my sights on said Madrona.
Staring at the word Madrona, I pondered for, literally, minutes. What is in a name... Well, in Madrona, I found: mad, and, on, rad, dam, ram, androm (I probably made that word up), and Mr. I can now see why the question is such a popular one. There is a lot to find in a name, and it is pretty fun trying to find it.
What I think made it most difficult for me was that Madrona lacks an "e." As I said, I enjoyed myself, and not being the type of guy to hog all the fun, I’ve decided to throw one your way: Tamarack
There you go, no “e” there either, but I believe in you guys. Let's see who finds the most!

One of the easiest and most impactful changes you can make in your home is swapping out synthetic dryer sheets for a set of 100% wool dryer balls. With every load, these dryer balls help reduce drying time, soften fabric naturally, and eliminate the need for synthetic additives - all while being reusable, compostable, and zero-waste.

Holy cow, Angelica! 25… Geesh. Makes my 8 for Madrona look piddly. But Madrona was harder! I bet you couldn’t find that many with Madrona…
