Looking forward to jumping back into things with a pop up this Sunday at ! Come on by and say hi! Oh and snag a goodie or two. (Check out that flaky crust snap on the last one, not too shabby.)

If you have known me for any length of time, you know two things to be true about me. I am what some may call indecisive, can’t make a decision to save my life, and I have a soft spot for all things education and healing, especially when it comes to mommas who have been separated from their babies. While I know this need as a result of adoption, there are so many moms with kids in foster care who face a similar struggle and need, who are often forgotten and misunderstood.

Where is the connection for the bake sale? Choosing an organization to support is tough for me. Patty’s Hope makes it easy! A local nonprofit with the mission to bring help, hope, and healing to biological mothers of children in foster care. Focusing on 4 key components while working with these mothers: safe housing, trauma recovery, life skills, and healthy community. They fill a need often overlooked, loving on those who need it desperately and frankly Leila, the co-founder, is just one of those cool people who makes you feel safe, seen and accepted from the first hello.

So get yourself some yummy goodies and do something good for someone else! 50% of the proceeds will go directly to Patty’s Hope. It’s a win win…trust me!

All the honey things. Vanilla cake with a honey buttercream and honey glazed cookie crumbles. Y’all if you want some amazing local honey, I know a guy. Legato honey is floral, honeysuckle forward, all around delish! And the cake wasn’t bad either…
