I used to work in a cubicle. Writing that out sounds about as lame as it does saying it out loud. When I graduated from college with a pretty legit English degree, I had big dreams of doing something extraordinary. Six years later I spent half of my time stuck in a gray box with no windows staring at a computer screen. Luckily I was able get out of my cube and into a job I don't actually loathe that gives me more time to spend on my baking. I'm also a recent newlywed, which I know has motivated me to bake my face off to impress the studly man I married.
I started this blog for two reasons. I love baking and I like to share it with people.. I mentioned before that I have higher hopes for my life and career and have found that my love for the sweet side of life is really quite a passion for me. Not just to eat sugar, but to create it for others to enjoy. Whenever I bake, something just lights up in me. As cheesy as that sounds, it's true. I get a pure joy in creating a sweet treat and sharing it with others. And considering how challenging my health goals are, keeping these goodies to just my husband and myself isn't the BEST idea. I would eat them ALL if you let me.
By no means do I claim to be an expert in this department, because I certainly know I'm not. I just LOVE to do it. This blog is a journey with hopes that it will become something more. Yes, I want my own bakery. I want my own cupcake empire. Anything where I can put a smile on someone's face with something I've created. I hope what you find here inspires you to get into your kitchens and create amazing things! I'd love to hear about your baking adventures! Thanks for stopping by!
