A Regular Family with Unique Interests

Back in 2016, we downsized our home and went into business for ourselves. Peri had been growing her own wedding cake business out of our home and Brian was starting a hockey equipment customization business, serving all levels of professional and amateur hockey. At that point, we made a pact to start saving money to buy our forever home (if the chance ever arrived) in our beloved Chester County, Pennsylvania.

In 2022, that opportunity presented itself, and we had the chance to purchase a home out of foreclosure in just 3 weeks. This blog is about our journey to customize our home for ourselves and our two boys, with lots of help from our amazingly talented friends and family.

Peri is the owner and operator of Brooklyn Girl Bakery. She specializes in wedding cakes and was the winner of Netflix’s Sugar Rush Season 1, Episode 3.

Brian has spent most of his career working for a family-owned generic pharma company, helping to make medications more affordable for all. As a lifelong musician, he also tours with a regional Yacht Rock band and provides the in-park organ playing heard at all Philadelphia Phillies’ home games.
