Happy Fat Tuesday! Or, if you are like me and have decided you need as much joy as possible in these times, happy Fat 2026! King cakes are available until my heart says stop. It may be never! 🤷🏾‍♀️

I’ve had such a hard time posting because the world feels like it’s on fire some days, and I’m supposed to post seasonal baked goods. 🫠 So, if you’d like to buy some cookies, consider buying these. $35 of each $45 box (one dozen cookies) goes to Unidos Bridging Community. Eat something good and do something good! Available until we don’t need cookies like this anymore 🙃

Hanukkah may be over, but the warm feeling we have from breaking bread with friends will keep us toasty for a while!

In her beautiful prayer over the menorah, our dear friend and host asked for peace and a home for the people of Palestine. I’m taking that with me to 2026 for sure.💛

As the year begins to wrap up, I’m reminiscing. Throwback to getting married to my best friend, business partner, and the man who didn’t try to stop me from making 9 cakes for our wedding. (He may have gently asked if I was sure, but he knew who he was marrying)
Books are open for the 2026 wedding season! I got to work with so many amazing couples this year. There’s something so special about being let in on the couple’s personality and vision, and being able to be just a tiny part of that joy. I can’t wait to hear more love stories, watch more couples laugh over cake samples, see more happy wedding-day faces. It’s the little things in life, y’all!
