We are gearing up for our sourdough class on Saturday so I’ll be taking you along with me in my stories today if you’d like to join me 🫶🏼

Here I mixed together my sourdough starter, flour and water (last night) so I can make loaves for those attending my class!!! We also will be eating in class, because why not?! This class we will be having homemade sourdough crust, raos pizza sauce, a healthy layer of mozzarella cheese and I haven’t decided whether to do pepperoni or just cheese? 🤔 I’ll also be making just a plain classic loaf with an olive oil dip. Yum!

We’ve been on vacation and boy did we all need that week to check out!

When I’m on vacation reality stays home and the dreams come alive.. the sand beneath my toes and the views of the ocean bring out a creative side of me that’s tucked away when I’m in the rhythm of everyday life.

Dreams of starting my own coffee and bakery shop, dreams of serving other people and my community, dreams of different ways to pour into my family. It seems like all the world’s problems can be solved if we all took time to checkout and dream by the ocean.

If you’ve made it this far, I only got on here to post and say that August 8th I’m teaching a sourdough class and I literally couldn’t be more excited. This refreshed energy is coming with me and it’s my goal to make sourdough seem more like a joy and less overwhelming! When you walk away I’m hoping to instill a confidence in making homemade bread for you and your family! Because there’s something about being able to provide these simple staples to your menu for the week.

Have an amazing weekend, may God be with you and bless you ❤️

Having a cottage bakery is sort of wild! You spend countless hours and time baking and preparing.. knowing no one might show up! And when people do purchase your baked goods, you wish you could be there on their first bite to ask them 5-100 times “is it good” ? You know it won’t be everyone’s favorite and that’s ok, but your people are out there!

Even if lovely loaves isn’t your favorite bakery, when you find one that is, compliment and give them all the feedback!

I’ve always been confident in my baking and cooking, but man do you all reassure me! You have no idea what it means to me when you come back for more, give a compliment or recommend my bakery to others!

To say I’m excited about tomorrow and the opportunity to serve everyone who comes is an absolute understatement 🫶🏼

Y’all already know Saturday is the day to come and I’ll be set up right in my from yard from 10-1!!

I lived in the south for about 10ish years, so I’ve got to bring in a little bit of my southern draw to the conversation, y’all ❤️

Back to business though, I’ll have a new product I’m rolling out, a sweet, cold, delicious caffeine surprise.. you might want to wait and have your coffee here with me.. if you’ve ever been over to my house I’ve likely made you an iced coffee. I’ve never gotten a negative review, unless everyone is lying. 😅 so if anything, I need some honest, unfiltered feedback.

The basics are brewing! The sandwich loaves are fermenting in the fridge, the granola is smelling my whole house of sweet vanilla and cinnamon, the cinnamon loaves are on their way to the fridge now! The scones will all be freshly baked Saturday morning, the sooner you come the fresher and warmer they will be ❤️

Three days, until we’re out here at 616 Portland Ave, providing some staple baked goods for your week!!
Saturday 10AM (in my mind I’m in the scene of Elf, where the store manager says “10AM, Santa’s coming” and Buddy the Elf is jumping up and down, screaming “SANTA, I KNOW HIM”)

Anyways, that’s the vibe for Saturday 🫶🏼

Well the practice bakes went well and I’m gearing up for this weekend, the count down is on!!!

It’s been so fun to reconnect with my regular customers and reach out to new ones!! You guys have no idea how much it all means to me.

The weather is looking like it will be beautiful for Saturday! I’ll be set up in front of my house and we will be ready to serve you all at 10AM

We will have sandwich bread, cinnamon swirl mini loaves, granola and the famous (my best seller at least) chocolate chip scones! I’ll see y’all there ❤️

I’ve come to realize that I don’t do recipes well because I bake with my heart… anyone else? 🙋🏼‍♀️
I add a little bit of this and a little bit of that!

So instead of getting hung up on making recipes for you guys I’ll tell you my secret.

For the most part, I have one base recipe that I love and I add to it. I also use the exact same process for all my breads. If you’ve ever looked at Pinterest or else where for recipes you’ll notice that everyone has their own process for sourdough.. the bulk fermentation is different, the time frame is different and it can be so confusing!!

That’s what I’m going to work on, giving you a one size fits all sourdough recipe and process! And yes it’s taken me like 2 weeks to get to this realization since the last time I posted 😅

In other news, we have chickens now and they spent their first night outside last night and my baby boy has broken his first tooth through last night/this morning. I love this life I get to live, God has blessed us beyond measure!

Since I am not baking much, would anyone be interested in digital or physical collection of the recipes I use?! I’ll be working on putting them together the next few days! Just wondering if there’s interest! 🥰
