"BEST CONFUSING COMBO" Remember when you were a kid and your mom would promise that you could have a treat if you behaved yourself while she ran errands? This Ballard institution is the grown-up version of that particular form of bribery; a trip to the post office seems so much less tedious when you factor in seasonal lattes, macarons, and scratch-made banana bread. The female-owned centralized hub for notary services and iced coffee also has a location in Greenwood, and both offer a discerning selection of chic stationery, scented candles, and other trinkets suited to the procrastinating gift-giver - because of course, you can ship them on the spot. You’re invited to enjoy our Summer Sale at Greenwood Sip and Ship. We’re also offering all of our mailbox members 15% off all bottles of wine purchases at Ballard Sip and Ship (until July 30th or while supplies last). Whether you're a traditional mailbox member or a virtual one, we look forward to passing along awesome savings to you! Wherever your summer takes you, we hope it includes a stop into your favorite one-stop-shop combo!

In our final segment of Women In History & Women Making History brings us to a member of Sip and Ship that truly brings cross-dimensional talent to our team, Kat Schulthies. Kat started out with us as a mailbox customer and on a whim applied for a barista position. Little did we know that four years later, while welcoming challenges in various roles throughout our organization, naturally, she would become our first Madame General Manager. Kat operates from the mindset that her work is not a sprint. Creating and building takes great patience, collaboration and hard work - and if you want to go far, we must go together - especially the heavy lifting required to move a team, small business and community through unexpected change and safely through a global pandemic. When asked where Kat finds her inspiration, she introduced us to Mary Frances Kennedy Fisher. An American culinary writer who essentially created the food memoir genre. Her style of writing about food and cooking was so unheard of for a woman, that many people thought she was a man. Her dedication to showcasing all the intricacies and intersections of food, life, and love, whether mundane or gourmet inspires Kat to continue using food as a means to connect with and understand my friends, family, and community. "First we eat, then we do everything else." - Mary Frances Kennedy Fisher Kat’s true love is baking and creating beautiful cakes! She sees to it that our Sip and Ship cafes are well appointed with quality and delicious food everyday. On a personal note, I will never forget the incredbile mermaid-themed cake she made for my 50th birthday! When Kat’s not cooking up deliciousness; she enjoys spending time with her cat Littlefoot, exploring the outdoors with her partner Tyler, and celebrating Halloween with friends. Thank you for joining us in celebrating Kat on her four year work anniversary with Sip and Ship and the women throughout history who fought for what they believed in and cared about. Carving their way through resistance to stir our consciousness and inspire our actions today. |
