Have you ever been to a party and there were platters of food out just begging you to come graze and try a little of everything? Well maybe that food was prepared by Erica who has a business inside the Suites at 224 called Graze by Erica! She shares with Dave how she took a passion and turned it into a business, then sold Angie on the idea of letter her put her kitchen in the back of the Suites at 224. Then Dave gets to sample some of the meats and cheeses Erica has artistically arranged.
Kathy Geiger fell in love with not just the Corazón jewelry, but also with the people making it and the stories behind each unique piece. She started selling all over the world, and then COVID brought that to a stop. One door closed and another opened as she became a part of the Suites at 224 with a brick and mortar store, something she said she would never do. In her shop you will find more than items for sale, you'll find an experience. One best shared with family and friends as you find something unique just for you that also comes with your very own story.
