A little lovebug on the way! Dragonflies, bees, butterflies, and ladybugs with splashes of baby items. They also went with some ladybug macarons. Super cute! Thank you for your order, Nicole! 🐞

Some cool Chico State grad sets! One for a computer animation/video game design grad, and another for a nursing grad. Always fun to personalize these! Thank you for your orders, Melissa and Jennifer!

First, thank you to all who wished me a happy birthday a couple days ago... and took the time to grab treats on me!

This set, nothing crazy. Just a bunch of muscles and weights (and a couple favorite boats) for a personal trainer. Thank you for your order, Nique! 💪🏼

Hi! 👋🏼 If you're new here, this is how we celebrate my birthday every year... giving away treats to the community! (Not my cookies though, your girl is taking a day off 😆). BUT, for at least the last 5 years, I've collaborated with other small businesses in town to give out little treats today for you to help me celebrate! 🎉

So... three places to visit today!

1) at the 1078 Gallery. My favorite coffee in town! I started doing giveaways with them soooo long ago, I can't even remember... it might have been when they were still just a truck! Today, all pastries in the case are on me until sell out. So if you were planning on getting a yummy pastry, grab a delicious coffee crafted by Eileen and Rylan while you're at it!
1710 Park Ave, Chico, CA 95928. Open now until 2pm.

2) For my Paradise babies, I'm giving away 44 free mini scoops for the first 44 kids to come into . Owner Steffany has graciously indulged me for the 2nd year in a row in helping me execute this, so parents, if you were planning an ice cream date with your kids... guess what? You should treat yourself too, since their ice cream is on me today 😉
797 Elliott Rd Unit D, Paradise, CA 95969, open 11am-9pm.

3) And finally, for the Chico kids, the first 44 kids at today get a mini scoop and cone on me. Samantha of .ornaments made these fun little tokens for me to help keep track! Shenlyn and her team make the BEST ice cream in town, no exaggeration. Current fave in the case is Wedding Cake! (A note: if your kid doesn't want a cone, consider it a tip for the crew -- I know my little one prefers a cup 😊).
1905 Notre Dame Blvd #100, Chico, CA 95928 in Meriam Park, open 11am-10pm.

The Chico community has kept my business going strong for nearly 10 years now, and this is how I love to give back and celebrate with you every year. Cheers to 44! 🥂 🎂🍨

Of all the categories of cookies, I'm seeing a ton of creativity in the bachelorette/bridal shower area. I had to Frankencookie the bloody mary, but what a fun theme! Thank you for your order, McKenzie! 🌶

Signing day for some excellent athletes! I'm gonna sound like an old lady right now, but back in my day, there weren't celebrations like this, but I'm so glad these kids get recognition for their hard work! Thank you for your order, Angie!

Baby shower, but make it Stitch! I must admit, characters are not my favorite, but I don't mind Stitch as much. Thank you for your order, Shy-Ann!

A set from last week -- a Phantom of the Opera set for prom! (I did tell Mom not to have them eat the black ones before the dance 🤭). Thank you for your order, Amber!🌹

Besides maybe Toy Story, these "retro" sets (I hate to label it that because the 90s/2000s was the crux of my childhood/teenagehood 🫣) are one of my favorites to do! I start with blank canvases and work from there.

There was a specific request for some Lisa Frank inspired cookies... not gonna lie, they are among some of the most difficult because those images are burned in our brains from childhood. Hopefully the bright rainbows give it away! Fun teacher appreciation set for the Sierra View crew. Thank you for your order, Raylene!

It's been a crazy week so I've mostly been quiet here... hopefully back to normal next week!

Most know that today is Cinco de Mayo, but it's also Midwife Appreciation Day! All the love to those who assist women in one of the simultaneously scary, difficult, and beautiful moments of their lives. Thank you for your order, Cherianne!
