Article Icon 1Wrong Text Leads to Lasting Tradition

A wrong-number text in 2016 led Arizona teen Jamal Hinton to Thanksgiving dinner with Wanda Dench, a stranger who thought she was inviting her grandson.

Instead of brushing it off, Wanda welcomed him with a grandma’s heart and a plate of food—and they’ve shared the holiday ever since.

Ten years later, their unlikely friendship is still going strong, a viral reminder of kindness, connection, and saying yes to the unexpected.

This year, Green Giant is hosting their meal to mark the milestone—and its own 100th anniversary.

Article Icon 1Modeling Icon Still Going at 94

Carmen Dell’Orefice, who landed her first Vogue cover in 1946 at just 15, is still modeling at 94 and is now the subject of a new photo book by longtime collaborator Fadil Berisha.

Carmen Dell’Orefice: The Ultimate Role Model, released earlier this month, celebrates her 70-plus years in fashion.

Despite posing for legends like Salvador Dalí and Irving Penn, Carmen says it wasn’t until working with Fadil that she felt truly accepted—gray hair, wrinkles, and all.

From the runways of the 1940s to modern photo shoots, she remains a graceful constant in a changing industry. See her Instagram page here.

Article Icon 1Thanksgiving Meals for Truckers

In Grand Junction, Colorado, the Roy family is cooking up more than turkey this year. They're serving gratitude to truckers spending Thanksgiving on the road.

With dad hauling freight for the holiday, mom Kandi and the kids are bringing home-cooked meals to drivers at their local Love’s Travel Stop.

They plan to serve 200 full Thanksgiving dinners—turkey, stuffing, pie, and all—plus handwritten thank-you notes.

A GoFundMe is helping cover costs, and support keeps rolling in. The Roys say it’s their way of thanking the folks who keep store shelves stocked and supply chains running.
