Vegan Lemon Poppy Seed Cake
I spent the last four Thursdays taking a beginners sewing class. I’ve sewn a few things in my lifetime (quilts, pajama pants, a purse) but I’ve never actually made anything 100% on my own. My mom was always by my side, fixing or finishing things up when I would get frustrated. I’m a big girl […]
