I first started baking cookies when I was a sophomore at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Va., for my high school sweetheart and now husband. He was a junior at VT majoring in architecture, which meant that he often worked on drawings and models all night long in Cowgill Hall. I thought my cookies might help, although perhaps the coffee he drank endlessly through the night helped more.
One truism has stuck with me through my whole life. I am called to help others as I would hope others would help me if I needed it. I invite you to live up to that truism, as well, by buying baked goods from KR Homemade Cookies and more! Read on to learn how your love of baked goodness can help others.
I started this online bakery, KR Cookies and more, during the midst of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. I found myself wanting to do something to be useful and helpful, but volunteering in person somewhere was not possible, because my husband has a compromised immune system due to cancer, and I just couldn’t risk getting sick myself or carrying the virus home to him.
I saw on Facebook that St. Mary’s Episcopal Church in the Springfield neighborhood of Jacksonville, Fla., where I have lived since 1978, needed donations of food for its food pantry. With the run on groceries due to everyone having to stay home and cook, the grocery stores were not able to donate surplus food like they had been doing.
