Dressember

By foodandthestory

Spreading Jam & Awareness this December

I couldn’t help but wonder… what if progress sometimes shows up quietly, the way fruit softens over time, not all at once, but steadily?

Today’s flavor is rhubarb and strawberry. Tart and sweet, familiar and bright. The kind of spread that feels right on warm toast or spooned over yogurt, reminding you that balance matters.

This jar is part of Spreading Jam and Awareness. Each day, I open a Bonne Maman Advent jar, share a trafficking statistic, and wear a dress to support Dressember and the work of International Justice Mission.

Today’s truth:
In one South Asian city, trafficking of minors has decreased by seventy-six percent through joint efforts between International Justice Mission and local government.

Change happens when systems show up, stay engaged, and protect what matters most.

Small acts. Big hope. Donate.

I couldn’t help but wonder… what if real change often begins long before we ever see the results?

Today’s flavor is strawberry passion fruit, bright and lively with a little tropical warmth. Sweet, tangy, and cheerful, it’s the kind of spread that feels right on toast, folded into yogurt, or spooned onto something simple.

This evening’s jar is part of Spreading Jam and Awareness. Each day, I open a Bonne Maman Advent jar, share a trafficking statistic, and wear a dress to support Dressember and the work of International Justice Mission.

Today’s truth:
43,590 local officials and community members have been trained to better protect their communities and care for survivors. Training matters. When people are equipped with knowledge, compassion, and tools, prevention becomes possible and survivors are met with dignity and care.

I couldn’t help but wonder… what if the hardest truths are the ones that don’t look the way we expect them to?

Today’s flavor is mandarin, bright and gently sweet, with that clean citrus note that feels like a pause button in the middle of a busy season. It’s lovely on toast, spooned into yogurt, or paired with something simple.

This evening’s jar is part of Spreading Jam and Awareness. Each day, I open a Bonne Maman Advent jar, share a trafficking statistic, and wear a dress to support Dressember and the work of International Justice Mission.

Today’s truth:
Only 0.2% of trafficking victims are kidnapped. That is about 1 in every 500 people. Almost all exploitation happens at the hands of someone the victim knows and trusts.

Awareness matters because it reshapes how we protect, believe, and respond.

I couldn’t help but wonder… what happens when survivors are not only supported, but trusted to lead the way forward?

Today’s truth:
Dressember advocates support 34 Global Survivor Network chapters around the world.

Today, more than 4,000 survivors across ten countries are using their lived experience to shape laws, reform justice systems, and protect others from violence.

Survivors leading. Communities learning. Justice moving forward.

I couldn’t help but wonder… what if rest is part of how we stay in this work for the long haul?

Today I’m sitting out the jam jars and letting this pelican float, unbothered and unhurried, reminding me that even in movements rooted in urgency, there is room for stillness. Dressember matters deeply to me, and so does listening to the quiet signals that say pause, breathe, and begin again tomorrow.

Today’s stat:
Eighty percent of forced sexual exploitation cases involve women and girls. Awareness doesn’t stop just because the kitchen does.

So today, I’m resting without guilt, watching the water, and trusting that even a quiet day can hold space for truth.

I’ll be back tomorrow, spreading jam and awareness again.
