A little over two years ago, I moved back to Blackshear, GA, (my hometown), after being away for 35 years :O I moved into my parents' 150 year old home, where they had lived for 40 years. As I looked around the house, and how BIG it was, and realized that my own children would soon be flying the coop, I realized I was going to need something to occupy my time that brought me joy. I started baking
up a storm, and entered one of my creations (a Peanut Butter & Jelly Cake) into a cake contest at the Farmer's Market in Eastman, GA. Low & behold, I won FIRST PLACE in that contest! I soon found myself selling cupcakes every Saturday in Eastman, and then I stumbled across the Live Events at Christi's Downsouth Living in Blackshear, GA. Before you knew, my humble little beginnings turned into a full throttle bakery. And while it's a little overwhelming at times, I am blessed and highly favored to be able to make a living at something I truly enjoy
