Question

How did Sarah and Taylor meet?

Answer

A long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away Sarah interviewed Taylor for a position at Plow & Hearth. Before you think the worst, Taylor was not reporting to Sarah, she was merely acting as a representative of the Culture Committee and Fitness Team to express how “fun” it was working in Madison, VA. Sarah thought Taylor was a bit overconfident and recommended P&H not hire him. Luckily, Sarah’s opinion held no weight and P&H hired him anyway. Taylor moved from North Carolina and had been working at P&H for a few months. Sarah liked his work ethic and Taylor had apparently been interested since he met her. One day before a meeting Sarah overheard Taylor ask a coworker how her quilting retreat had gone. Her heart melted. From then no she “sort-of” pursued Taylor. In June 2017, Taylor asked Sarah to go for a run. After the run, he asked her out to dinner. She suggested a beer. They had their first date at Bavarian Chef over a Hefeweizen and a giant pretzel and the rest is history.
