New Beginnings in Newberry: Resolutions, Baking Dreams, and Healthy Moves!

Ah, Newberry! A charming little town buzzing with excitement for the new year, filled with residents making resolutions and embracing culinary adventures. Whether it’s tackling personal challenges, launching delightful baked goods, or promoting a healthier lifestyle, our community is full of inspiration and warmth. Let’s dive into the delightful happenings around town!

New Year’s Resolutions and a Dash of Humor

This year, one local resident, Jase Graves, has decided to take on the new year with a humorous twist. With his lighthearted approach, he admits that some of his resolutions might not last past Valentine’s Day. But there’s no denying his love for celebrating with special moments, especially when it involves delicious Mexican food.

Jase’s main focus this year is his mental health. He jokes that he can’t stay in bed until next January, and he’s absolutely right! It’s a wake-up call many of us can relate to. One of his first resolutions? Tackling that inevitable dread that washes over him every time one of his three semi-grown daughters calls. Typically, such calls involve money problems or boy drama. The struggle is real!

His worries don’t stop there. Jase frets about his elderly SUV, which has an ongoing check-engine light saga that keeps him on edge. Plus, his youngest daughter’s mischievous dog, Biscuit, has a habit of munching on things he shouldn’t. It’s a recipe for potential vet visits that Jase would rather avoid. Amidst all these anxieties, he’s aiming to embrace the changes that come with aging, allowing himself some grace and accepting the quirks that life throws at him.

A Sweet Venture: Sugar Heaven Home Bakery

mouthwatering treat to the Newberry community with the launch of her home bakery, Sugar Heaven. Set to open just in time for Valentine’s Day, her bakery had an amazing debut with a “porch pop-up” event that sold out in a swift 58 minutes. Talk about sweet success!

Sarah’s baked delights, ranging from fluffy cinnamon rolls to rich chocolate cupcakes and scrumptious blueberry cream cheese rolls, are made with a heartfelt touch – she bakes everything 100% from scratch. Her passion for baking ignited at the tender age of nine. It has bloomed over the years, leading her to sell treats at her stepfather’s workplace earlier in her baking journey.

This endeavor stems from her New Year’s resolution to stop procrastinating, and it couldn’t have turned out better! She aims to incorporate locally sourced ingredients into her creations and follows Michigan’s cottage food laws, ensuring that her delicious offerings are as delightful as they are responsible. Plus, Sugar Heaven doesn’t just create amazing sweets but also fabulous dessert tables for celebrations. It’s clear that she views baking as a stunning form of art, seeing fellow bakers as partners in creativity, not competition.

Promoting Wellness in Our Community

health and exercise. His aim is to inspire his peers, especially those in his age group, to stay active and prioritize their health.

The mayor emphasized how crucial physical activity is for both mental and physical well-being, citing various studies that showcase the positive impacts of exercise. This exciting initiative isn’t just a one-time event; it serves as a motivational push for the community to engage in daily activity beyond the event itself.

As the community rallies around these resolutions, projects, and initiatives, it’s evident that there’s plenty of love and laughter around Newberry as we kick off another exciting year. Here’s to personal growth, delightful treats, and a vibrant community spirit!
