Weekend recap ✨
This weekend was a reminder that life can hold so many emotions at once.
There was laughter, music, friendship, baking, celebration, and gratitude. There were also moments of reflection and missing those we wish were still here to share it all with us.
Between concerts with friends, recipe testing and preparing for upcoming TV appearances, Father’s Day cookie orders, cake pickups, and time spent creating in the kitchen, my heart felt full. The past few weeks have been challenging, and I’ve been reminded that joy and grief can exist side by side.
Yesterday, I celebrated a man who has redefined what being a father looks like. Dave, thank you for your unwavering love, patience, and devotion to our family.
At the same time, Father’s Day will always carry a bittersweet ache. My father-in-law was far more than a father-in-law to me, he was a father in every sense of the word. The pain of losing him is still very real, and I miss him deeply.
What I do know is that baking has always been my therapy. It’s where I find peace, purpose, and a way to pour love into others, even when my own heart feels a little heavy.
Here’s to celebrating the good, honouring the hard, and being grateful for every moment in between. ❤️
✨ What has been bringing you joy lately, even during the difficult seasons of life?
