Good morning! 🍂☕️

It’s a chilly 46° out there this morning, and I keep trying to convince myself to crawl out of my comfy chair and blanket… but so far, I haven’t made it very far. 😂🥶

I’m back early from fall break and ready to get back to baking for you and your families!

👇 This week’s menu is posted below! 👇

📌 A quick note on pricing:
You’ll notice a slight price increase on the breads made with Italian Parmesan and/or Asiago cheeses. The cost of these specialty cheeses has continued to rise, so I’ve made a small adjustment to those loaves to reflect the increased ingredient costs.

Thank you, as always, for supporting my little bakery and allowing me to keep baking for you! ❤️ Every loaf is made with care, quality ingredients, and a whole lot of love. 🥖🤎

Now, let’s get this oven going so I can warm up. 😂🔥

🎄🍪 CHRISTMAS COOKIE SNEAK PEEK #2! 🍪🎄

⭐️⭐️ NEIMAN MARCUS ⭐️⭐️

🍪 MYTH BUSTER TIME! 🍪

I’ve been making this cookie for over 20+ years, but did you know there’s a famous story behind the name?

Have you ever heard the legend of the $250 Neiman Marcus cookie recipe? 💰🍪

The story goes that a customer enjoyed a chocolate chip cookie so much that she asked for the recipe. When she was told it would cost “two-fifty,” she thought it meant $2.50. Imagine her shock when she supposedly received her credit card bill for $250!

Her revenge? She shared the recipe with the world so everyone could make it for free!

But here’s the truth!

It’s one of the internet’s most famous food urban legends! Neiman Marcus has denied charging for a cookie recipe. When the story resurfaced in the 1990s, the company responded by developing and sharing its own chocolate chip cookie recipe for free.

So, no $250 recipe required! 😂

🍪 Now, let’s talk about MY version! 🍪

Converting this longtime favorite into a sourdough cookie was by far my hardest conversion yet! Let’s just say a LOT of cookie testing was going on in my kitchen! 😂 But I finally got it just right! 🙌🏼

The result? A rich, buttery cookie packed with chocolate, oats, and walnuts, for a great balance of texture and flavor. It may not be the most colorful cookie in my Christmas lineup, but trust me, the flavor more than makes up for it! Sometimes, the most unassuming cookies are the ones you keep coming back for! 😋

And the best part? You don’t have to spend $250 or do any of the baking yourself! 😉

Stay tuned for more Christmas cookie sneak peeks! 🎄❤️

10/13/2026

Well, fall break didn’t quite go as planned. 😂 Christmas cookie recipe testing and deep cleaning are well underway, but the R&R portion of the program took a few unexpected detours!

We were headed to Grayton Beach when camper problems landed us in Alabama for a two-night stay. As it turned out, that was a blessing in disguise because if we’d made it all the way to Florida, we would’ve had to turn right back around due to hurricane evacuations.

From there, we scrambled to find or rearrange campground reservations. And since it’s peak fall travel season, finding a place to land was a bit like winning the lottery. We made it to Georgia, only to have to leave because of high-wind warnings.

Our next stop? Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, along with approximately 3 million fall breakers and leaf peepers. 🍂😂 It was PACKED! Bumper-to-bumper traffic, shoulder-to-shoulder foot traffic, and enough people to make you question whether everyone in the country had the same vacation itinerary.

So much for a peaceful, relaxing getaway! Haha!

But we’re happy to report that we made it home safe and sound, with a few extra miles on the camper and a few stories to tell. And the silver lining? I’m opening the kitchen back up and getting back to baking earlier than anticipated!

I’m happy to be home, back in my kitchen, and baking instead of dodging traffic. ❤️🍪 ❤️🥖

🎄🍪 Thought I’d give y’all a little sneak peek 👀 at one of the Christmas cookies I’ll be offering this year!

I’m SO excited about how this one turned out!

It started out as a ginger molasses cookie, but somewhere along the way, after a few test runs, it evolved into a straight-up ginger cookie — and I’m not mad about it!

This is not your grandma’s rock-hard, crunchy ginger cookie. 😉 It’s soft and chewy in the center with lightly crisp edges, packed with ginger flavor, and rolled in a sweet ginger sugar mixture for an extra little something.

I’m a baker, not a photographer but I think I might have actually gotten a decent picture of this one!

This one is definitely going on the Christmas menu! 🎄🍪

Thank you all for another amazing week. Thank you to the new faces who found me, and to all of you regulars who keep coming back. It truly means more than you probably realize.

Thank you for trusting my kitchen, my work, and me—not just as a baker, but as a person.

This little business means so much to me, and getting to share what I make with this community is one of the best parts of it. 🥹

Most of us don’t even know what we’re making for dinner tonight, but here I am asking you to know what you want to eat next week. 😂

I’m putting next week’s menu out a little early because next week will be my final pickups before fall break! 🍂

I’ll be taking a little time to:
🧼 Do a deep clean.
🌲 Work on some recipe testing (think Christmas cookies 👀).
☕ And sneak in a little R&R before we jump into the holiday season!

I’ll have Wednesday, Friday & Saturday pickups next week, with Saturday, October 3rd being the final pickup before my break.

So if you’ve been meaning to place an order, now’s a good time! ❤️

Thank you, as always, for keeping my little bakery busy and letting me do what I love! 🥰
