During the covid crisis I chose to teach myself how to decorate sugar cookies. It was something I had wanted to learn since watching Martha Stewart do it on a morning show. She made is look so easy. (It isn’t!)

In October of 2020 I shared my first set of decorated sugar cookies. They were Halloween themed, and I remember being so excited that I had actually made them look good. They were instantly shared to Facebook so that everyone else could join in my excitement. Then the unexpected happened. People wanted to know how to buy them. Could I actually sell them?

It turns out the answer to the question was YES! It took me until 2023 before I realized I needed to license my little side business. In March of 2024 I became a licensed cottage kitchen in the State of Washington. I am celebrating my 1-year anniversary this month.

It amazes me how things work out. If you would have told my 20-year-old self I would be baking for people I would have said, NO! The funny thing is that I was about 25 when Martha planted that little seed in my heart. It grew until the time was right for it to be harvested. I am so glad it was planted. I love to bake and baking for other people makes it even better.

If you have ordered cookies or other goodies from me in the last year thank you. If you are a customer I haven’t met yet, welcome! I am looking forward to growing my little bakery and nothing matters more than you being a part of it!
