oh my! hand made goodness....

I met my friend,Sara, last year via email and we quickly hit it off! She ran a small business, had a little boy the same age as my middle son AND lived in the same town as me! How lucky I was to find her.

Since then, we have gotten together several times to bounce ideas off of one another and just "get away" from work for a few hours (even though we usually talk about it the entire time we're together). It's SO refreshing to have someone that you can confide in who speaks the "same language" as you....business language, that is.

I feel that I've done a fairly good job of educating myself on the ins and outs of running a small business...I've learned a lot through trial and error and have depended on my strong work ethic and sincere passion for what I'm doing to get me through. Sara is pretty much the same way...but has been generous enough to share some of her greatest small business tips on her blog for the past several years and built up quite a following of people looking to her for inspiration and advice.

This winter, we met for coffee and she unveiled her new idea for a blog that would be "a community for independent business owners and the hip parents that support them." All I could say was GENIUS and that I would L O V E to help in any way I could....so she put me on board as a monthly contributor.

Sure enough...two months later Oh my!Handmade Goodness is done....and it is done EXTREMELY WELL. I love it and just know it will be a huge success. Take a minute to check it out and let us know what you think!
