I first noticed Topeka Tea Cakes when they catered a Mother's Day event at The Beacon in downtown…read moreTopeka. The photos were beautiful and looked delicious on the screen, so I thought I would give them a chance. The owner, Ashley, is very helpful and offered some flavor combinations for my macaron order. I thought her pricing was very fair and reasonable given the quality ingredients and time that goes into making these colorful little gems. At the last minute, I added the madeleines to my order and was so glad I did. They were absolutely delicious! My only regret is I did not order more! Everyone loved them! Topeka Tea Cakes gets my recommendation. They made me look good as the host. Give them a try for your next cake, cookie, bakery order!

I went to Stumpy's to look for Christmas gifts-meat and cheese, they were low on products and…read moreprices in store differed than online gift boxes which was a disappointment. I ended up only buying one gift basket and picking up a few little jams and a smoked bacon Gouda along with half a summer sausage to gift to a friend. They were pretty busy when I went in but the ladies working were friendly and helpful. They have Cheese, smoked sausages, jellies, bbq sauce, Cashmere Popcorn and other jarred condiments available. The store is small and can easily be missed if you are not paying attention, the parking lot is also small, not a lot of stalls for parking.

I had been following for YEARS on Facebook (can't even remember how I found them!), and have since moved out of town, but I wanted to give my dad a surprise gift for Valentine's Day. I messaged the business on Facebook, and within minutes, Stacy responded to my inquiry. She made it so easy to order a gift basket and even offered to have it delivered to his home. I was blown away and incredibly appreciative of such great service. For a gift basket of 3 cheeses, sausage, beef sticks, crackers, jelly, and a cutting board and knife, it was only $65! They also threw in a couple of chocolates and a handwritten card to make it special :) Everything (I'm told) was super tasty, with the Habanero Ghost Pepper cheese being a favorite. I'm excited to continue gifting Stumpy's to friends and family in the Topeka area and beyond.

Our son first went to the Lawrence Montessori School (LMS) as an eleven month old. Although our…read morefamily is no longer residing in Lawrence, LMS is one of many things that we miss the most. All of the teachers and staff members of LMS had been always so pleasant and upbeat. They created a really positive, enriched learning environment for the kids. They took such wonderful care of our son and truly had a passion for what they do. The curriculum was very carefully considered and varied week-to-week. I also have to give a shout-out to Ms. Amanda and Ms. Sophie in the Hummingbird room. They helped me through some of his more difficult times with toilet training and drop-off anxiety, as well as the 'terrible two' stages. Our son had been learning by leaps and bounds thanks to his awesome teachers! Furthermore, the managerial staff of LMS, Ms. Purviz and Ms. Sonja, helped ease my mind and were always there to give advice when I needed it. I always felt very comfortable talking to them about anything that comes to mind, and they are attentive to our feedback as well. I highly recommend LMS!
