Back At It, The Season, and The Orange Sleeper

I had no plans to do any official business baking since having Dakota but I had some customers reach out to me and couldn’t say no! One asked for me to bake beach-themed cupcakes with seashell, sea star, and turtle chocolate toppers for a baby shower.

The baby shower is in May and I decided to practice the chocolate toppers this week to see how they would come out. They’re cute! Next, I need to experiment with the cupcakes 😬 (more…)

We Made That and Family Valentine’s Day Celebrations

Jimmy is a co-owner of his family’s steel fabrication business. He has been blessed to do work all over the Pittsburgh area: the zoo, parking garages, residential railings, elevators, gates, stairways, water slides, and more. Everywhere we drive he can be heard saying “We made that” as he points at a cable railing or steel column in a parking garage.

This week, we took the kids to Sarris Candies for a little treat night! We wandered around the candy store and sat down to enjoy our chocolate when Jimmy pointed at the railing in the store and said “We made that.”
