God has used the shop to be a blessing to guests, my team, our suppliers, and me. I got this message from Facebook today: I have no delusions that it’s because of anything I do or what people say is charming. I know all the factors that work together to allow people to be blessed is…

Wait for It! There’s Light!
I was so blessed by an offer to display our cakes for free in the South. I made the trip to Alabang to check out the place. The traffic on the way home was quite slow so I fiddled with my phone and decided to try the Hyperlapse app. It’s so easy to use, it…
