Adding Whimsy to Life
We want to thank everyone who participated in our Sangria Party last Saturday, 11 May. If you weren’t able to make it, you missed some delicious Sangria from the genius of Cheery Checkerboard, not to mention some great snacks also from Cheery Checkerboard. Since the party, we’ve been selling out of Cheery Checkerboard’s sangria mix, [...]

We’ll have live entertainment and snacks as well as non-alcoholic drink mixes for the under 21 guests. Sunday, May 12, we’ve volunteered to be a stop for a local [...]
If you have been to our shop in the last couple weeks, you would have seen us a little disheveled and disordered, in an outright mess even. It isn’t because we are slobs and unorganized… ok maybe we can be a little unorganized, but truly there has been a good reason for our mess. Since [...]
We had a great time at the Jamie Grace concert, especially before the concert where we had the opportunity to showcase some of our locally made products and meet some potential new customers.

An all time favorite at our house is split pea soup with grill cheese sandwiches. It brings back memories of childhood for us. Women’s Bean Project, Sarah’s Spicy Split Pea Soup Mix is good enough all by itself, but add a couple ham shanks and stew in a slow cooker and you’ll be reliving the [...]
We continue to honor Women’s History Month with more great recipes from Women’s Bean Project, on special in our store through the month of March. On the back of pack of Women’s Bean Project Original Salsa Mix, you can find a recipe for tacos using 1 pound of ground beef. We’ve done this before, but [...]
Cindy’s Sinfully Chocolate Brownie Mix from the Women’s Bean Project is almost as simple as opening the packet. Start with one complete dry mix packet of Cindy’s Sinfully Chocolate Brownie Mix. You’ll also need 4 tbs of butter, 2 eggs and an 8x8x2 greased pan. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt the butter and combine [...]
We’ve all heard about Amelia Earhart, Rosa Parks, Eleanor Roosevelt and the many other women who have graced the annals of Women’s History. They made huge impacts on the world and have been memorialized in the dreams and ambitions of generations of young women, and men, seeking inspiration. I’m thankful for these great women and [...]
