Hi.

Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures of being a mom while living my best life. Hope you have a nice stay!

Shop Local Master List: Southern Illinois

Shop Local Master List: Southern Illinois

WOW—This list was a labor of love and collaboration of all of your input. I will first and foremost say THANK YOU to all of you who shop local and continue to support my blog. This list is not all inclusive and will be added to as I learn of new businesses. I tossed this blog post together QUICKLY and will continue to edit but I wanted you all to have a starter pack for Christmas shopping early and supporting your local and favorite businesses. Make sure you follow Caffeine Until Cocktails on Instagram that you can get more behind the scenes of these stores, discount codes and a look at their inventory. I will be releasing another post with even more small businesses that are not local to Southern Illinois!
