A jin catching up on her reading.Wow... has it really been this long since my last post??? I don't even have a plausible excuse, for I've been busy sitting on the beach, dining out, exploring coffee shops, sitting on the beach, dining out, reading novels, sitting on the beach, dining out, planting my own herbs, sitting on the beach, dining out & having surprise jincounters with not-so-creepy

All the SWEETBOX recipients from last week were beyond pleased (I need to work on a testimonial page!) and I'm back today with your very last chance at one. Here's the final call for SWEETBOX orders!

Since I left you for so long without a post I suppose I must offer you an explanation! I have a very good one, although some of you won't be happy about it. It's great news though! Well, for me...I have been busy tying up loose ends; after 17 years in business I am closing the doors to my pastry shoppe & heading down to the Sunshine State.I very much feel the need to grow & Manitowoc can no
