    So for Labor Day, which seems like forever ago, the girl and I went on a road trip to see her friend in Wisconsin. We did a lot of crazy stuff and one of those things was visit a place called Apple Holler in Sturtevant. What’s super funny about Apple Holler is that they make Read more

    Would you believe I am actually five blogs behind? Five! At the end of August I went to a place called Calyx Creek Lavender & Lodging in Oxford, Iowa. Remember how I went to the Cedar Rapids Farmers Market a few weeks ago and the girl bought some lavender stuff, like a scone mix for Read more

    Yesterday I had the coolest adventure, but before I can tell you about it I have to backtrack to last week. After I went to the farmers market in Cedar Rapids, I stopped over to see my friends at Big Grove Brewing there since it had been a while and they were having a Neighborhood Read more

  • Marketed

    Yesterday I went somewhere really neat: the farmers market! The girl wanted me to experience a really big one so we went to Cedar Rapids. Our first mission when we got there was to find some breakfast food because we were hungry. We walked around looking for breakfast sandwiches and then we saw this food Read more

    Today I finished the marble cake I made on Sunday and I have to tell you the results were very unexpected. We started by making a chocolate cream cheese frosting and then we got the cakes out of the freezer to frost. I put my professional swirls on the cupcakes with the cut off tops Read more

    Yesterday my goal in life was to make the Lemon Tart with Almond Crust from my Bakeshop Classics cookbook, page 101. The girl got me all the ingredients we needed and even ordered a citrus juicer from Amazon so we could juice all the lemons ourselves. The first thing we had to do is make Read more

    Yesterday was the 4th of July or Independence Day as some people call it, and I had a completely wild adventure after the girl got done taking pictures of a parade for her job. We met up with her friend and went to Big Grove Brewery but this time we went to a different one Read more

  • Traveled

    Last week the girl and I took a road trip to Michigan to see her family. I packed my suitcase with outfits and accessories for a week. On the day we left the girl had to work until noon, so when we made our first snack stop it was already lunchtime. I was super excited Read more
