✨hey everyone!✨
I’ve been a little quiet because I decided to take a chance and invest in the growth of this side hustle! I’m still making cookies but less than usual the past few weeks to work on some behinds the scenes stuff like packaging, stream lining orders AND a surprise!
I thought since I’ve hit 700 followers this week (the heck?!?), I would share some fun facts about myself and I’ll try not to make it boring. 😉
- Part of why I LOVE Baker Babe is because one of my top love languages is “gifts”. I love the feeling of giving someone their requested edible art and seeing their face light up and the pictures and messages I receive after are THE BEST. Honestly, they make my day every.single.time.
-I have a few obsessions in life, no matter what age, phase or stage of life I am in I can’t get enough oat milk lattes (hence this photo by ), Coldplay, gift shops, madewell, podcasts, pretty much anything blush pink, stationary, donuts, dogs and traveling!
-Making and test tasting cookies is great but being physically and mentally healthy is also so important to me! I live by the motto, “everything in moderation”. So, when I’m not mixing icing or working as an OT, I am usually at the .It is by far my favorite place to workout and the community of women is so so inspiring and empowering.
-I can’t just share all the positive, feel good stuff without sharing a struggle too. I was not a born business woman by any means. I have never even taken a class in business nor have I ever wanted to. It has been a struggle for me to learn lessons in this business the hard way. Anywhere from canceled orders without taking a deposit leaving me at a loss and stuck with custom cookies that no one else would buy or realizing that it’s smarter to buy the cheaper packaging, even if I don’t find it as cute as the more expensive stuff. I’ve come a long way and I’ve learned not to be so hard on myself! I have so much respect for business owners & anyone who took a risk to follow their arrow!
-Lastly, I’ve recently become addicted to shake shack burgers and I need an intervention 🍔
