The Makin' Bakin' couple met as cake decorators in 2005. We have 20+ years of baking experience.Both our passions for baking stem from helping our grandmothers in the kitchen. Some of our best childhood memories are standing on a chair at the kitchen counter and getting to lick the mixing spoon. Baking together is how our family stays close. We encourage feedback and are willing to do small personal orders.

Krystal started like most of us did; with a box of crayons. The thing is, she spent a great deal of time breaking those crayons and melting them on light bulbs to see what new colors she could invent. (NOT an advisable behavior). Twenty some odd years later and she is still trying to create colors and experiences to both excite and inspire the eye. She finds beauty in everything and tries to capture it in her artwork. In early 2010 Krystal took on the pseudonym of Tisiphonni as an art label.

Phil Morrison is an authentic American with a story that should be read by anyone who believes we learn from our personal experience and national history. Seldom have so many forces come together to put a young sailor in the middle of events that would shape the context of a generation. During his rugged growing-up and the choices and circumstance that led Phil (and his brother) to be in the bull’s-eye of actions in the Tonkin Gulf in 1964, his narrative captures the courage, fortitude, faith, and perseverance that his country would need long into his lifetime.

After living in Los Angeles, California for more than 30 years my husband and I decided to pack our bags and leave the congested city behind to a simpler way of living. After many trials and errors we came across a tranquil piece of land that was calling for our help. After some hard work our result was a small family-run farm.

Lift The Spirits, Awake The Senses & Heal Thyself! Killer Bee Wholy Healin’ Cream was conceived in 2012 out of a waste product (beeswax) from a small farming & beekeeping operation at Arkansas’ Killer Tomato Farm located in Toad Suck, AR. Farmer/Beekeeper Brian Isaac knew something could be made with the wax scraped from the frames/hives after extracting the honey. After a little research it was learned how to process the wax into a clean, valuable resource that is a main ingredient in the lotions and lip balm.
