There’s something pretty special about Clean Alchemy - a candle company that’s making waves (and scents!) far beyond what you’d expect. 🕯️

The name says it all: clean. Every candle is made with 100% soy wax and fragrance oils free of phthalates - those plastic chemical fillers you’ll find in most store-bought candles. The result? A cleaner burn, better scent throw, and a candle you can actually feel good about lighting every day. 🌿

But what really sets Clean Alchemy apart are the stories behind the details. The numbers stamped on each wax seal aren’t random - most are inspired by their kids’ sports numbers over the years, with a few paying tribute to favorite Chiefs players and even a nod (or two) to Taylor Swift. 💫

The business started simply: after plug-ins wrecked her sinuses and most candles gave her headaches, the founder wanted something better. What began as a small, personal project quickly grew into something bigger - a company now known for beautiful, clean-burning candles and an incredible private label program.

Private label and wholesale make up the bulk of their business today, giving other brands, companies, and even brides and grooms the chance to create their own custom candles with personalized logos and scents. And yes- one of their most famous clients has been none other than The Kansas City Chiefs ❤️💛

From local roots to big-time collaborations, Clean Alchemy is proof that when passion meets purpose, it burns bright

Last weekend we visited the Southside Fall Festival in Southside St. Joseph, MO and had the best time! This 36-year tradition really shows why it’s such a beloved part of the community. From the incredible local food vendors to the handcrafted goods and the live entertainment, there was something for everyone in the family to enjoy. The atmosphere was so fun and welcoming- you can tell how much heart goes into making this festival special every year. We’re already counting down to next year’s 37th Southside Fall Festival, always the third weekend in September.

Looking for your next date-night spot or a true taste of Italy? EMI Ristorante 2.0, tucked inside a beautifully restored old firehouse in St. Joseph, MO, is a must-visit. Inspired by the rich food and culture of Emilia-Romagna- and lovingly named for the owner’s daughter Emy, who often greets guests with a smile- this Italian gem has recently transitioned from a prix-fixe concept to a full menu of handmade pastas and wood-fired pizzas.
We sampled it all- from appetizers to dessert- and every bite was unforgettable. The owner proudly shared that the pasta was “just a bag of flour 4 hours ago,” a perfect example of their fresh, authentic ingredients. Their 10,000-pound pizza oven straight from Naples creates a blistered, perfectly chewy crust that tastes like a trip to Italy.
Inside, the sleek all-black décor (yes- even the toilet paper!) adds a bold, modern vibe. Pair your meal with a glass from their full Italian wine list, or try one of their craft cocktails or beers. With weekly specials, walk-ins and reservations welcome, and plans to open an event space upstairs soon, there’s always something new to experience.
🍝🍕 EMI Ristorante 2.0 is where authentic Italian tradition meets bold modern style- right here in St. Joe!

We absolutely love Narrative Home & Boutique! This shop truly has it all- you can wander through multiple times and still discover something new every visit. Some of our favorites include the local merchandise that celebrates all the amazing things and high schools in the area, the fun jewelry collections, and of course, the Taylor Swift merch. It’s the kind of place where you’ll always find a little something special. 💛

Traveler's Hearth was created as a sanctuary for healing, connection, and community. Designed as a nightlife alternative for those who are sober- or simply seeking something different than the traditional bar scene- it offers handcrafted botanical sodas, teas, and mood-boosting elixirs with wellness benefits and uplifting effects.

The space hosts 18+ after-hours events, providing an inclusive and vibrant alternative to nightlife, as well as family-friendly gatherings like themed tea parties that create magical experiences for both kids and adults. Weekly workshops, art nights, and community events bring people together in meaningful and creative ways.

Guests can also book tarot and palm readings with Summer, available by appointment or walk-in. For those planning a celebration, Traveler’s Hearth hosts private parties with personalized drinks, readings, and themed activities.

Alongside its drinks and events, the shop is filled with treasures- crystals, candles, jewelry, vintage finds, and unique antiques. Since opening in late July, the space has already received incredible support from the community.
