Parlor House Rules
The terms of the house, written the way Winnie posted them beside the screen door — short, clear, and friendly.
Welcome to the Parlor
By opening this showcase you have stepped onto our porch, and on this porch every visitor is a guest. Wander the collection rows, open the tasting deck, read the batch ledger, and draft a keepsake crate note at your leisure. All we ask is the courtesy of a good guest, which the rules below describe.
What Belongs to the Hollow
The stories, illustrations, batch notes, and recipes gathered in this showcase are the work and property of the Parkman family. You are welcome to enjoy them for personal browsing and gift planning, and we ask you to write before reproducing them anywhere else.
- Browsing, gift planning, and care package scheming are always welcome.
- Ask by letter before republishing photographs, illustrations, or text.
- The recipes stay in the family ledger, hand-written and hand-stirred.
- The pecan crown mark belongs to the Hollow, like the kettle it stands for.
Browsing and Correspondence
This showcase is arranged for wandering and inspiration. When you would like keepsake tins set aside or a crate packed for an occasion, write to us at pecanhollow.confections@gmail.com and a person — usually a Parkman — will answer between kettle pulls.
Kind Conduct
Keep your letters courteous and your questions honest, and we will do the same. The kitchen answers every note about batches, allergens, and gift planning in the order it arrives.
Neighboring Pages
Every link in this showcase leads to another page of our own — the collection, the porch papers, and the kitchen door. We keep our references close to home, the way a small town should.
When the House Rules Change
Should the house ever grow new rooms, we will post the revised rules here with the date, and the old ones will go into the ledger for the record.
