Here are 3 tips to help you with your holiday baking this year:

▶️Nutmeg is not a nut. It is actually a seed that is ground up into the spice that is used mainly during the holiday. So if you have a nut allergy, nutmeg should be safe.

▶️Weight is the most accurate in baking helps you create a consistent product. So if you are doing lots of baking for a large crowd and want to keep your product consistent, then we suggest switching to weight vs using cups.

▶️To prevent browning of your fruit (which is a natural process and does not mean the fruit is bad) use lemon juice or another acidulated water mixture.

Plus, in honor of the first day of fall. I want to share with you 3 fun activities to do with your kiddos.

I promise it is not the pumpkin patch, bonfires, hayrides, or side by side rides though all of those are really fun.

I guess you will just have to listen.

Last few weeks, I have introduced you to some of the people who inspire us to keep going.

I introduced you to Hayley and Raylyn, my sister's kiddos. Today, I interviewed my youngest Sloane.

We, also, talk about some of the delicious gluten friendly items that we have introduce in the store along with our partnering with some local businesses.

We want to invite you to stop by the shop and see some of the beautiful stained glass artwork we have on display by a local artist.

We are open Tuesday-Saturday from 730-2pm. We are vegan, keto, diabetic friendly, gluten friendly, and traditional options for everyone including our famous Gooey Butter Cheesecakes.

Last week I told you so much more about me as a person. So many of you reached out and told us how much you enjoyed that. Thank you.

Because you loved it so much, we are going to continue this week talking about my sis, Lacey.

If you missed the video last week, then after we are done here today, I want to invite you to watch my live last week to learn more about me.

Meet another one of the amazing people behind the scenes in our biz ⤵️

You met my middle daughter, my sister's two kiddos, and now it is time to meet my eldest daughter. The one who made me a mom.

This video is a previously recorded video. We are always trying to think of fun ways to engage our customers. In June, we did weekly activities. The activity challenge is no longer active.

Now without further delay, let's dive into the mind of Brianna, who we call B, with some of the same questions we asked the other girls.

Learn how she and all the girls have inspired us to do what we do. We want to show them that girls can do whatever they want.

Remember we are located at 201 N Main St., Waterloo, IL 62298 We are only a short 20-minute drive from south county St. Louis and our entire town of Waterloo is well worth the small drive.

We are opened Tues-Sun 730a-2pm. We are known for our delicious gooey butter cheesecakes like our banana pudding or our turtle. Plus, we have amazing keto products.

On today's video I talk a bit about my time working in the shop and meeting everyone in town. I loved being in Waterloo and actually working in the shop over the summer.

Plus, as always, I loved eating all our treats. Nothing like eating your own profits. 🙋‍♀️

And the real reason this episode is longer than usual is the fact that I am a pretty open person. I have really enjoyed building our brand by letting you get to know us as people.

I share quite a bit about myself, but I realized there are several things about me, the CEO and social media face of the business. So, I set out to change that by telling you 10 facts that most people actually don't know about me.

We are back from our summer break. I accidentally forgot to post my last interview with the kiddos. (SSSSHHH! Don't tell Maddie)

Anyways we are back this week to round out the last of the interviews with them.

We had a great summer and we will pick up next week talking about the fun things we had.

I want to enjoy you to continue to know the important people behind the scenes who inspire us.

Hey my lunchtime pals. We are so happy you have joined us today.
