My Giving Tree
Dear Sis, I thought of you today. Happy Mother's Day. And not just because you're a mom. But because of what a mom you were to me. You know, for all those early years. My brother, sister, and me. Early 1970's. Remember the year you made me a birthday cake, with jam...
Cutting Board Drawer
When I was thinking about the layout of my kitchen, I wanted to incorporate as many features as I could that would make the most out of my space. (I like everything to be tucked away). I especially liked the idea of having a chopping block/cutting board drawer that...
Peanut Butter & Chocolate Bars
The always perfect combination of peanut butter and chocolate come together in this most delicious bar cookie recipe, given to me by a good friend. It's a favorite after school treat for the boys. Served with a glass of cold milk, it's easily the perfect classic and...

IT'S ME, SERENA!
In 2002, I was dreaming of creating a fun and happy little event to sell my vintage and handmade goods. In 2002, I held my first event in my neighbor's barn along with a handful of friends. The sale became wildly popular and began attracting visitors from across the country and recognition in national magazines. Today The Farm Chicks Vintage & Handmade Fair fills the Spokane County Fairgrounds and features hundreds of creatively and carefully curated spaces packed with vintage and handmade goods. Many describe it as a bucket list event, magical, inspirational, and the best event of its kind in the USA. I describe it as the best weekend of the year!
