This review is overdue! I've been shopping at Meant to Be for awhile now. This is a nice lil store…read moreright by The Blue Owl in Kimmswick. They have a great variety - soaps, lotions, locally produced honey and jams, accessories, gifts, etc. I've mainly purchased the soaps - these are my FAVORITE hand crafted all natural soaps. I've completely shifted my self care routine to these soaps and my skin is thanking me! I prefer the oatmeal and honey one as I'm sensitive to scents but I did get a candy corn scented one last year and the fragrance was perfect. I have purchased soaps from other stores as well, but I prefer the meant to be ones as they are a nice size, mild scent and they last about a month each (with only me using them in the shower) and they are a great price point at $4-5 a soap. I've also enjoyed the honey from here and let me tell ya - that started a peanut butter and honey toast habit. The honey is so silky and delicious! The service here has always been top notch. The employees offer to help but do not hover and will do their best to make recommendations as well.

I went this past Tuesday - it was the perfect rainy day activity! From the moment I walked in, everyone was nothing but friendly, helpful and accommodating. One of the ladies showed me around. Apparently they had just come back from a workshop and learned some new techniques. I fell in love with one of them and decided to do it for one of my pieces. It involved layering four different colors and using paper leaf cut-outs. I think it took me bout an hour to complete! Such a relaxing process and so much fun! I also painted a small plate freehand. That probably took about another hour. Throughout my time there, the ladies would occasionally check in to make sure I was doing alright. And they were always available if I had any questions.

The host was pretty hands off after that they weren't actively helping get colors for the kids who were all really young. There were only two people painting other than the party at the time. They also didn't tell the parents throwing the party that it would be over two weeks to get the items back until the day of the party and that one person would need to pick them all up. The kids had a fun experience but it definitely could have gone more smoothly and been more organized.

It's such a fun way to learn new techniques, try something different, and enjoy great food in a welcoming environment. The instructors were knowledgeable, friendly, and made the class easy to follow while still keeping it engaging. Whether you're an experienced cook or just someone who enjoys food, the experience feels approachable and enjoyable. The food we made was delicious, and there's something really satisfying about being able to create a dish yourself and then sit down to enjoy it afterward. It's also a great activity to do with friends, for a date night, or even as a unique way to celebrate an occasion. A fun, memorable experience with great instruction, delicious food, and a welcoming atmosphere. I'd definitely come back for another class.

Fennel is a unique cooking studio. They offer a variety of classes each month, some of which are…read moreseasonal. Some of the classes are in partnership with local restaurants or farms. Their website usually lists the current month and the next month. The classes cost about $100 each (some less, some more) and are limited to 16 people. There is usually one instructor and two assistants. They provide the mise en place, implements, and instruction. You receive a folio of recipes to take home. Over the course of the class you work together to cook the dishes. At the end of class you socialize and eat and you get to take leftovers home. It's a fun activity to do with friends, partners, colleagues, or family members. I have taken the scones class, the pie class, and the mole class. All were great. The studio is clean. The instruction is clear. It's just a fun experience.

The store is so cute! The mix of nostalgic candy, rare finds, antiques, ice cream, coffee, and bulk items can be overwelming, but in a positive way. It is almost like a candy / treat store and a museum all in one. On this trip, I got some coffee sample packets for my husband's Easter basket, a frappe for each of us, and a couple of candies for the household. The shop is bursting with products, so the aisles are a bit tight for passing people stopped to check out the fun products. Caledonia is a charming little village with shops, eats, and several outdoor adventures in the area.

Located just 10 minutes down the road from Six Flags Amusement Park on the old Route 66. A pleasant ride with country scenery on both sides. There is a place called Red Cedar Inn (owned by the City of Pacific) to welcome visitors to the area. Just past a Silica plant the area opens up to businesses on both sides of the highway. There are three places out there that feature antiques, collectibles and in one instance a nice clothing boutique. The new place is Route 66 Goodies on the left if driving westbound. This place is packed with third party curated merchandise. Most are open booths where customers can handle items, with a wall of locked cases on one side. The cases are necessary in one case to preserve the condition of the collectibles inside (like new toys from the 1990s-early 1990s, comics and trading cards). There is also nice glassware and a few pieces of antique and vintage furniture. I recommend checking it out someday and have lunch at one of the many restaurants that are spouting up here and there.

The rep corrected me - and (embarrassingly) it didn't fully dawn on me until afterwards - yet was still kind enough to answer questions to the best of his knowledge. His answers were a great help for the move - he clearly knew his products and was patient. If this is how their customer service treats all potential (or clearly lost) customers, then I imagine they take fantastic care of their clients.

He quickly knew exactly what I was looking for and not only gave me a price of new, but because of what we were using them for, gave me a price for used ones as well. Needless to say because we are storing tires on them we went with the used. Dan has always responded quickly to email and provided great service. They sell so many different kinds of industrial shelving or bin shelving for the garage, tool boxes, and so much more.
