What is World Baking Day?
Did you know that today is World Baking Day? The original idea behind the holiday was to bake a homemade cake and gift it to someone special. It has since evolved into gifting all sorts of baked goods (not just cakes) to friends, neighbors, & loved ones. 🌎🥐🍪🥰

Staff Picks | Field Sketchbook
"I love to draw whenever I have a spare moment, so a field sketchbook is perfect to bring along wherever I go. It also has thick and sturdy pages that prevent erasers and ink from damaging them." - Joanna
She was kind enough to share some of her art with us. Thank you Joanna!
