Welcome!
I’m Molly – a 29-year-old Executive Assistant living in Connecticut who bakes and photographs food on the weekend. I love baking and cooking, but baking is what I’ve always gravitated towards. I've enjoyed it ever since I can remember (I even considered going to culinary school before transferring to Concordia University in Montreal) but I never got serious about it or did it consistently enough. It wasn’t until I graduated from college and moved back home to Connecticut that I realized how much I thoroughly enjoyed whipping things up in the kitchen and playing around with my Nikon D5100 that hadn’t been used in so long! Around two years ago, I began to regularly post what I was baking on Instagram and although the caption for each photo could turn into a small list of steps I took, ingredients, thoughts on bake time, etc., it never felt like enough space for me.
This little corner of the internet will give me the ability to share the recipes I love (or alter in any way), post more photos of the final product, interact with friends and family who have messaged me for these recipes 🙂 and get back to blogging!
Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any thoughts, comments, feedback, etc. and thank you so much for checking out this little blog! xx
