Welcome to Apples & Pearls! My name is Emily Anderson Karst and I am an elementary music teacher, bookworm, obsessive planner, and passionate Jesus follower. I love constant input and am sure to learn something new every single day. I try to live life the classy way and do it with a real world budget and no stress brainstorming. Here are my ideas and favorite finds in my 20-something growing up journey. Thanks for being here, I'm so glad you're hanging out with me!
