I’m super excited to say I’ll be open from 12-530p on Friday and 730-Noon on Saturday! What do you want? English muffins? Focaccias? Sandwich Breads? I’ll be baking off all fresh cookies tomorrow too. Including a new flavor! 😋
Next week I do have follow up appointments so it will still be part time hours until I can get the go ahead to do my thing.

Things are heading in the right direction! I’ll be heading into the shop to check up on what needs to be done and discarded today. I’ll be opening soon although the hours won’t be the full day just yet. Keep an eye out as I post the open times. Thank you for your patience through this mess. You all have been so kind!

I know it’s been a minute since you’ve heard anything from me, definitely was down for the count. Exciting news! I’m heading home today. Still more healing to do. So it will be a little slow going. I will keep you updated as I’m able to get things going again! Thank you for your patience. ♥️

Good morning, everyone. This is Jacqlyn’s sister, Melissa, posting on her behalf.

Due to an unexpected health issue, Jacqlyn will be undergoing surgery this morning and will be unable to fulfill orders at this time. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

We do not yet know her recovery timeline, but we will share updates as they become available. Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to having her back doing what she loves as soon as she is able.

Good morning folks! We have something that needs tending to this morning and it simply has to be taken care of. I will get in there at some point I’m hoping but unfortunately it will not be first thing! I do apologize!

Fresh flowers to brighten your day, right in Levant!!

🌸 Fresh flowers are heading to the flower stand this afternoon! 🌸

I’ll be putting out a limited number of fresh bouquets today from 3:00–6:00 PM at The Cutest Flower Trailer Ever on Gasoline Alley Lane in Levant.

Because of the heat, I’ll only be setting out a few bouquets at a time to keep them as fresh as possible. If you stop by and the stand is empty, just send me a message and I’ll gladly run down with more!

Location: Gasoline Alley Lane, Levant
Just look for The Cutest Flower Trailer Ever!

Thank you for supporting local, seasonal flowers. I can’t wait to see what bouquets find their new homes today! 🌸

One month.

It’s hard to believe I’ve been in the shop for a month. There have been early mornings, long days, plenty of flour on the floor, and more lessons than I could have imagined.
What I didn’t know was how much it would mean to see familiar faces walk through the door. Some of you stop in every week. Some of you bring friends. Some of you drive out of your way just to grab a loaf of bread or a sweet treat. Every single visit reminds me that this little dream is becoming something real.
Small businesses don’t grow because of big advertising budgets—they grow because people choose to show up. They tell someone about you. They share a post. They come back. They believe in what you’re building.
Thank you for choosing this little shop. Thank you for your patience while I learn, your encouragement on the busy days, and your support from the very beginning.
One month down, and I’m just getting started.

-Jacqlyn ❤️
