Amazing Cakes Made By A Teenager Who Loves To Bake

At age 18, Rebi Narins owns a business that she created around her number-one passion: sugar!

"She was known, really known, for being that kid with the sweet tooth," recalls Rebi's mom Allison. Rebi would raid friends' pantries for candy and cakes, until she finally decided to start baking her own sweet creations at age 16.

Thanks to the vast treasure chest of inspiration available online, Rebi soon had more cake ideas than she knew what to do with. She decided to start with a project that shows how meaningful her hobby is to her: she baked an over-the-top creation for her best friend's Clemmie's birthday. From then on, Rebi was off to the races.

"The reaction I got from baking my first cake just made me want to make it taller, and bigger, and more extravagant," Rebi recounts with a smile. She started her baking business as an outlet for her creative ideas, and named it after herself: ReBakery, just like Rebi. And while Rebi filled orders for all types of customers and all kinds of occasions, her favorite people to bake for are her loved ones.

Of Rebi's cakes, her best friend Clemmie says: "They're her way of expressing how much someone means to her."

When she gets a joyful and impressed reaction from her friends and family after giving them a cake, Rebi feels sure that all the effort that went into it was worth it. "That's something that means a lot to me," she says.

Non-Profit Matches Veterans with Therapy Dogs for Life Changing Support

** In celebration of "National Pets For Vets Day", we wanted to share this heart warming story about how a service dog is helping a Vet with PTSD **

Brett Simon was a veteran K9 police officer who went on to work as a contractor for the Department of the Army as a bomb dog handler. However, after serving two tours in Iraq, he returned home suffering from PTSD.

Led by his Mom, Shari Duval, who had worked for veteran's charities near their home in Jacksonville Florida, Brett's family undertook two years of research to find a solution to help Brett and others with this condition.

Their research focused on canine assistance for PTSD. Ultimately, they started a non-profit organization. K9s For Warriors, dedicated to providing service dogs to warriors suffering from post-traumatic stress and/or traumatic brain injury as a result of their military service (post 9/11).

The Lonesome Boy And The Blonde Haired Angel

When Alex Fischetti thinks back to when he was 9, he realizes how he was different from other kids. "Some people can say that you are odd," he remembers. "Some people can say that you are a little out there." Diagnosed back then with Asperger's Syndrome, a condition that made it hard for him look people in the eye and interact normally, Alex missed many parties and other social events and often felt isolated. But if you look at him today, you see a completely different person.

Now 27, Alex has learned to deal with his condition with the help of some very special people along the way. He works a regular job, has written a personal memoir of his experiences, and has now become the self-described "social butterfly" of Ridgefield, Connecticut.
