LOVED being asked to takeover the My Day in Texas Ag instagram account! And I rocked it! ;) I highlighted farm-fresh salads, sides, meals, desserts, and cocktails. I talked about the Pearl farmers market, the Hill Country Nursery, Voges Veggies, 4-H, raising chickens, fresh eggs, and more! Even got to enjoy Valeria Farm-to-Table and Whiskey Cake for the first times too! The only thing that could have made…

Blood, sweat, tears, endless hours, so much work! A new booth set-up. A chalkboard and the big, fuzzy rug to carry. It was an exhausting, long couple of days. Learned some things, so I'm thankful for the experience... and now knowing whether or not a home and garden show is a good fit for me. (it's not) ;)

It was a glorious day!!! We skipped watching the rodeo this time, in exchange for checking out every single barn and exhibit... and participating in the competitions! We had never attended the 4-H expo before. Dozens of clubs showed up to hand out information about their groups and provide games, snacks, or take-aways for all the kids that stopped by. I think we spent an hour in this barn, enjoying…

I have never been tagged on instagram as much as I have since the November My Texas Market artisan subscription boxes arrived in everyone's mailboxes!!! Lonestar Lauren hasn't used our body scrub yet, but she said this: "I’m a huge fan of scrubs so this is perfect! I can’t wait to test this out in the shower as it smells like fall in a jar." Bits & Boxes said this:…

Our third handmade market! Cold, windy, rainy... miserable. And we had to get up even earlier than usual, to go buy a folding table at walmart. Ugh! But despite the yuckiness of the whole day, the boys were a big help in setting up, I stayed fairly warm with yummy hot chocolate, got to visit with LOTS of friends and shoppers (I can't believe how many people showed up!!!), and…

A portion of proceeds are donated to the Houston Food Bank. And subscriptions can be sent anywhere in the US. Score! I mean, how cool is that?! Oh, and the awesome part was that our pumpkin spice brown sugar…

Did it again! Set up, talked to lots of moms about our business and products, had some great sales, and had a fabulous time at the Alamo City Moms Blog's second anniversary party (this year a costume party for Halloween). :) Love the feedback from the ladies that love our mission and vision. And so appreciate the couple of moms that love our products so much, that they bring other…

An old friend of mine came up with a fantastic business idea. And put it in action. Home stuff, gifts, antiques, and wine!!! Her shop officially opens in a couple of weeks. But yesterday, my sister and I drove up to Salado to deliver a bunch of From Scratch Farm products to her building. Set up a cute display on an old dresser. Got to visit, make a pit stop…
