Coming Soon
For one of my classes in college, we were tasked to create a bakery/storefront. We went through the whole process: layout of equipment, measuring, the name, even touring several restaurants and bakeries to get ideas. Mine was called Knead Donuts (because everyone needs donuts). I thought I was so clever with the name, but now…

Nourish and Savor
I want to share some of the yummy bites I cooked during the month of November. In preparation for fall cooking, I started the process for drying sage back in August (then kind of forgot about it), using the fresh herb from my garden. It’s a unique herb that not very many people know how…

Six Months of Motherhood: What I’ve Learned, Loved, and Lived Through
A year ago from today, I was anticipating the moment of telling my parents we were expecting a baby. My parents would be first time grandparents (x2). It was a joyous moment, something we have all prayed for and it was happening. We then told my husband’s parents and they too would be first time…
