HELLO!

Lisa Dow Britson
Roxborough, Colorado
Daughter of a Midwest farm family, wife to always witty Danny, Mommy to 8-year-old Drew and 3-year-old Sophie Bella. After 8 years of owning my boutique, Not Too Shabby, in South Carolina, we decided to close up shop {still going strong on Facebook, Etsy and through online sales} & move to our amazing new home in Colorado! I'm a self-proclaimed baking addict and dream about one day owning a bakery. I post about all that I love: family, friends, travels, store, design, photography, food {mostly food} and everything else in between.
