Holidays!
Every run a small business during the holidays? It is nonstop put on many hats! I am updating the site now to try and make navigating holiday deals easier (as my wife suggested).
Hopefully this year images are easier to see and you get an idea of what you are buying. We are not Photoshop experts, so we did our best to frame some photos of mock baskets we made up.
Thank you all and happy holidays!

Pics of the back wall
I snapped a quick pic on my phone as a buddy of mine helped me erect the back wall of the warhouse today. It was still dirty from laying on the ground as leaves fell on it, but it will get cleaned and be finished soon enough. Expect some more pics and more regular updates as this finishes!
take a look!

Keeping contructing
No images this time round, just wanted to update that half of the back and front walls are done on the new building. It is taking its sweet time, but when you are a one man team it goes like that!
Looks wonderful, and I feel fortunate to have been able to make it this far in the project!
Stay tuned for more and images as they come!

More baking =)
What tasty treat did we bake up next you ask?!? Well, it's quite simple really: Blueberry Muffins. I must admit, I was surprised by how little effort it was to make muffins. In my opinion, the most difficult part is not over mixing the batter.
I prefer things to be uniform and muffin batter just isn't that way. It's a fact I had to accept in order to make delicious blueberry muffins. In the end, it was worth keeping myself under control and not mixing the batter till it was smooth and even because the muffins were scrumptious. If I had to critique them, it would be on their shape.
Since this was my first muffin baking experience, I wasn't sure how full to make the cups. I ended up erring on the safe side, so my treats weren't the cutest. But they sure were yummy!
