The Perfect Gift For Bakers

December 14, 2017 By Andrea

As of last week we really hadn't done much of any Christmas shopping.  I know.  It's not that we haven't wanted to, but it's a year of minimalism and we've been trying to declutter and finish sorting through boxes in the basement from when we moved in 2 years ago. We both have the want to tackle the clutter and projects, but the list is never ending and when you have 4 kids and run a business there really is no such thing as "free time".  I'm sure you can relate.  As we're doing our shopping … [Read More...]

Personalized Place cards for Thanksgiving or Christmas Dinner

December 7, 2017 By Andrea

A few years back Andrea and I went on a hike.  On this hike we saw these rocks stacked on top of another. Different shapes, different sizes, it didn't matter if they were big or small. There was no rhyme or reason just simply rocks being stacked one at a time. I had to look this up, and yes it's a thing.  A BIG thing. I said next time we're out I'll have to try one of these myself.  So next time we went on a hike I saw one. I looked at Andrea and she knew exactly what I was thinking, on … [Read More...]
