Treat yourself (and everyone on your list) to a little self-care! 🌿 SLFMKR is a modern apothecary and skin care studio from owner Kait Turshen, built on a fresh take on being “self-made”: investing in your own health, well-being, and confidence.

Navigating clean beauty can feel overwhelming, so Kait does the work for you, curating only non-toxic, eco-friendly, and cruelty-free products that actually deliver results. From glowy skin tints and serum foundations to luxe skincare, SLFMKR is the place to find feel-good gifts for your friends, your hostess, your teacher, and yes, yourself. 🎁

Find SLFMKR at the Sunbeam Holiday Boutique, November 11–13 at The Country Club. Self-care for a cause: every purchase supports Vocational Guidance Services. 💛

Remember that one time…🇺🇸🇺🇸

It’s been exactly one year since we competed in the Mondial Du Pain 2025 and we wanted to take a moment to throw it back to that amazing journey.

Once again, we couldn’t be more thankful for all of you who cheered us on, supported us, and proudly lifted us up through this journey. We are even more thankful for all those of you who continue to call us your favorite hometown bakery.

- With all the love, OTR

Going to start cross posting these again because I know some folks aren’t on TT! I always find more and add to my stories by Thursday night and add to the events highlight for reference- and I can’t include everything so always feel free to comment and promote events! I know these are long and not liked by the algorithm but of hell
