Bartaile Convertible Bags

November 2, 2015

Posted 09/12

I am always an advocate of supporting small businesses and ethically made companies, and also an advocate of functional stylish pieces. Bartaile launches today with the hope to bring multi-purpose, long lasting designs to a fashionable level….

Leather backpack - In Honor of Design

The very first product is this C12 carryall (comes in 8 styles). A piece that fits my lifestyle so well! It converts from a backpack to a fold over clutch to a messenger thanks to the removable straps. It is 100% genuine leather, lightweight, water resistant, and of course…POCKETS! I have used this numerous times toting both my laptop (there is a padded laptop sleeve inside) and motherhood essentials. So I’m calling it a genius design.

Congrats Amina and Felicia on the launch, and thank you for putting such a smart product on the market!

x, Anna

What a GREAT bag Anna!! You always make everything look great!

I have to tell you, I pinned your White Chicken Chili recipe a while ago when you first posted it. Cannot believe I’ve waited this long to try it! May husband and 15 year old son loved it!!! I loved it!! I followed your instructions and let it “stew all day” for the flavors to infuse! I did use a rotisserie chicken from Publix (I just peeled all the skin off the chicken). I used white an dark meat! After it stewed all day long it was a little low on liquids and I was out of chicken stock and only had vegetable stock-I added about 1/2 cup and it worked perfectly! Adding the cheese, sour cream & heavy cream at the end was perfection! Oh, I skipped the onions (not a fan) and used just the garlic. To eat with it, I made homemade (OK-semi homemade-I used the pre-made pizza dough they sell in the deli at Publix) focaccia bread using this recipe. I just rolled out the room temp pizza dough, put dimples in with my thumb and brushed the olive oil/herb mixture from this recipe on the raw dough. I oiled my pizza stone and baked the bread at 440 degrees for 20 minutes or so. Dusted with course sea salt after it came out of the oven! Perfect dinner!! Thanks and I recommend you share your Mom’s recipe AGAIN for those that missed it the first time!! YUMMY!http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/focaccia_bread_with_rosemary/
