Hello Readers, new and old. We have missed you! As we relaxed and soaked in the diminishing days of summer, we traveled to connect with friends and families, experienced wonderful meals and allowed our creative juices to simmer. M.C. baked the cake for her cousin’s wedding; a laidback, outdoor affair backed by the gorgeous Lake [...]
