About

I’m an eighth grade language arts teacher in South Carolina.  I graduated from Clemson University and am a big Tiger fan! I am married to a wonderful man named David.  We met in high school and were together for six years before getting married on May 24, 2008.  He is a software developer for a small firm in Greenville, SC.  Cooking has been a big part of our relationship since we were both in high school. We both love to spend time in the kitchen making new things.

I’ve been baking with my mother and grandmother since I was a little kid. I’m definitely more of a baker, but I still love to cook. My dream job would be to bake every day.  My blog is a way of sharing some of my favorite recipes and adventures in the kitchen as I improve my skills. Feel free to leave comments; I’d love to hear what you have to say!

  9. Neat! We have similar stories! My husband and I were married the weekend before ya’ll! I am looking forward looking through blog~

  10. I am surprised to see that there were TWO of us from Greenville participating in Barbara’s taste of yellow! THe cake looks delish!!

  11. As a professional baker, my advice to you is if you want to bake everyday and get paid for it, do it. I worked for years at jobs I just went to and got paid. Boring! Now I get paid for baking everyday – but you don’t get much – just so you know. We bake because we love it, not because we think it will make us rich. But, one never knows what may come from true passion. Keep up the great work and the blogging.
