Apple Bliss

Here it is, the big announcement! My sister-in-Law Ivette and I are starting a little business called Apple Bliss! We will be making indulgently coated caramel apples for events and gifts.
Here's the story...
Ivette was just married on July 2nd to her husband Brandon. Brandon's aunt offered to help teach us how to make these amazing chocolate covered caramel apples ( think RM chocolate Factory style) as favors for the wedding. So we learned, she helped us make them for the wedding... and everyone raved! Since she has no interest in turning this into a business... we are!!!

Here's a picture of the ones we made for Ivette's wedding. This a Toffee Apple (Caramel apple, dipped in milk chocolate, rolled in Heath bar, and drizzled with white chocolate!!!)
Not to toot my own horn, but these are seriously amazing! Hence the name, Apple Bliss. Plus we do them up all pretty to match the occasion. So, if you know anyone in the market for favors, or gifts... send them our way!

Soon to come...

I'm sorry I don't have pictures to share today... I've been out of town a few days... but I do have some info to spark your interest. Next week I will be showing off the dress i made (am currently making) Ava for her Alice in Wonderland birthday party!!!! It's sparkly, and blue, and sweet. Everything an Alice dress should be plus some.
Also, I have a new business venture that my Sister - in- Law are starting!!! I am so excited to share this, and hopefully we will have enough details nailed out for me to debut it next week!

Plus,  I made some pretty cute burp cloths this weekend for  an order I received. Pictures of those to come as well!!

See, no pictures, but i bet you are on your toes waiting :)

Off for now... back tomorrow or Tuesday

Farewell...

Back From Summer "Vacation"

I apologize for my long absence, but I took a much needed "vacation" from blogging and sewing. I am back now, refreshed and ready to roll! The good news is, I did not stop creating, and have plenty of pictures to share!
I am also thrilled to announce that we are expecting our third baby girl, Penelope Ruth, due January 7th! This was the main reason for my absence, due to morning sickness and the joys of early pregnancy! Now I am almost 16 weeks and have passed the hard part... for now.

Here's what the next moth should hold in store for my blogging adventures:
War on Ants!- Yes, we have an ant problem. If you live in California you have an ant problem... the key is figuring out how to deal with them naturally.... and successfully.
Veggie Garden Show Off
Birthday Parties
New sewing projects for The Queen Bee Market (Nov 12th)

and more...

So for now, hello again and goodbye! We have a trip to the fabric store to get to!
