Meet July, Owner and Cake Artist of Manila Cakery
Like most people, I love pretty cakes. The intricate baking and artwork that goes into making a cake amazes me. Whenever I watch those baking shows on the Food Network, I’m always reminded that baking is a science, more so than cooking, because the wrong amount of an ingredient or if the temperature is not exact for the oven, then your cake could be a disaster. So when I saw the Manila Cakery photos on Instagram, I was so intrigued. Not only are … [Read more...]

Meet Gabriella Mendoza, Owner of Bounce with Me Co.
When my daughter was a young toddler, we would always rent a bounce house for her birthday parties. It provided endless entertainment for all the kids at the party. Usually, the bounce house was a bright (i.e. loud) color with a TV or movie character splashed across the front. Nowadays, I’ve seen bounce houses in white or pretty pastel colors, allowing the party host to really elevate the look of a child’s birthday party. Gabriella, owner of … [Read more...]
