The Bakery's

This amazing woman started
Homestyle Bakery in
1975.
This is Beverly Edwards
with her sweet hubby Mike.
 
 

 
Always loved walking in the bakery and
smelling all those amazing smells...
better yet, trying out some of the
great stuff making those smells.
I have to say that Beverly's award winning
chocolate pie was fantastic.
 
I met Beverly through her daughter Julie about a
year before the bakery opened. We both went
to Donelson High School, each from different
sides of town. We hit it off and became
really great friends.
 
Growing up Julie, her sister and both brothers
worked in the bakery, it was and still is
a family owned and ran bakery.
 
Years fly by and Julie meets Roger.
 
 
They liked each other so much they
got married...lol
Dec. 8th will be 36 yrs.
Beautiful couple.
 
Although we stay in contact the years,
work and family have limited so much
time I would have loved to spend with Julie.
But I know if I need her or Roger they will
be there.
 
Wow...more years went by and we had kids.
Then those kids had kids.....
 
Julie and Roger trying to decide what
their life as an older couple (lol)
 would be
like decided to open
something they both knew about....
A BAKERY!
 
 
Although I thought it was really neat and
I was proud of them I was worried,
the econmy crashed in early
2008....in August they opened.
 
Business that have been around forever went
under and here they
were just starting out.
 
What was I worried about?
They took off flying and I
am not sure they have had time
for their feet to hit the
ground today.
 

 
They have been on TV. In magazines, and in
the paper.
 
They have won awards.

 

 
They have a great score!


But even better they have amazing smells
coming from their business just like
her mom still does.
 
Like mom's bakery, Julia's is a family
owned store.
All family members at one given
time or another has worked in the bakery.
 
Yep....I am proud of these two!
They are the kindest and most loving
Christian family and I am
honored to have the whole family has
my friends.
 
Ever in Murfreesboro or Nashville
Tennessee check out
both bakery's, you will be
glad you did.
 
Thanks for stopping in,

The Rest of Today

Image
After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after him. I had to snap a pic of Kelley making sure that I got

Hot Water Heater Mishaps

Image
 As I stated the hot water heater sprung a leak, from the bottom.  My younger brother came to help  with the issue. Problem, the  value at the bottom where you screw in  the hose to drain the tank, was  all clogged up.  It sets so close to the bottom  that it is hard to slip a  bucket under to catch water if we were to get the clog undone. There was no moving it till water was drained off the tank. We opened the top value, and leaned it over to drain into buckets. I have a great big  plastic tub, like this one. We filled it by leaning the  hot water heater over. Finally got enough off to be able to slid onto the two wheeler  and move out of the garage. Once we had it there,  we lowered it to the ground and let it finish with the drain. Mark went to Lowes and got another one, installed it and  had me up and running. The damage had been done though. With the unit on the  other side of the BR, water came under the wall and flooded the BR,  and the carpet in the den.  Yes, the same two roo
