bloom does indie shopping

it's doesn't need to be a hallmark holiday (yes, i called it out as a hallmark holiday, mother's day) to shop for mom ...  you ... your children ... gifties ...  for the sweet tooth or four legged buddies in your life.

be sure to stop n' shop the 

Indie Girls Art & Craft Fest 

today from 9-3 

at the Wyomissing Public Library on 9 Reading Blvd

You will find paper art used as party accessories or cake toppers, handmade and up-cycled children's toys & play food, customizable jewelry and key chain tags, baked goods, printed cards and fun jewelry to fill sweater free arms.

Show some hometown love to local chicks who craft and create!

bloom does...high school.

the bloom girls made a special stop last friday at christin's alma mater to visit jan jack's professional foods class! (we swear we weren't just in it for mrs. jack's homemade tomato basil jam! but stay tuned for more on that.) why would we do that you ask? simple: there are SO many avenues to take in life if food is your passion - being a chef is not the only one! perfect example: phoebe. she talked to the class about her passion for good, pure food and where it got her to today. and christin noted of her love of entertaining and eating and sharing all of those experiences on her blog and through bloom. so we challenge you, bloom foodie lovers, how does your passion for food affect you/your actions/you agenda for the rest of your life? we'd love to hear.

bloom does...our first birthday!
