I am so thrilled to know some fellow creative types and all around awesome people in Charlotte. We got together to play around the other day with aprons, a cake and my camera. Sunnie's house proved to be a perfect location, with bright sunlight pouring in through the large windows of her home.

You can order cakes by contacting Sunnie at mamawardscakeco@gmail.com and check out Rachel's etsy store at www.etsy.com/shop/ArgieAprons.

Yumm.

Sunnie's cakes are southern classic; made from family recipes. She focuses on flavor and texture, building her cakes with multiple layers of dense cake and icing. The style brings one phrase to mind: old fashioned. If you want to know what cake tasted like in the 1950's, check it out! A slice of mama ward's and a manhattan martini after a summer BBQ in the hood is a secret dream (and attainable goal) I have!

Rachel's aprons are all hand made from durable, comfortable fabrics. She uses wide cuts of fabric for the tie which really helps create a flattering shape. Her aprons are not only cute, but machine washable! Check out her etsy store here: www.etsy.com/shop/ArgiesAprons
