Whipping up a little Southern comfort, one delicious recipe at a time

Hey there, it's so great to meet you! I'm the mastermind behind this cozy little food & coffee blog. If you're looking for delicious comfort foods and Texas-inspired treats, you've come to the right place!

I grew up in a cozy, yet loud family that was always gathered around the kitchen table, sharing stories and passing plates of delicious food. My mom and dad were always cooking especially with fresh vegetables from our garden, and I was lucky enough to be inspired by so many of my talented family members so needless to say I have learned from the best. I've always had a passion for baking, and I love nothing more than recreating those same recipes and flavors that I grew up with. I've been baking for as long as I can remember, and I love everything about it. From the smell of fresh cookies in the oven to the satisfaction of biting into a perfectly fluffy biscuit, baking just makes me happy. Growing up in Texas, I was lucky enough to be surrounded by some seriously amazing food. I mean, have you ever had a slice of homemade pecan pie or a warm biscuit smothered in gravy? It's the stuff that dreams are made of, let me tell you.

Once I met my husband and discovered that we both share a passion for food, coffee, and culinary creativity. Baking became a way for me to create new memories with my husband and family, and I started coming up with recipes that combined classic Texas flavors with my twist.  When my husband and I bought our home, I found myself staying busy doing DIY projects around the house. I found that I enjoy working with my hands and flexing my left brain with creative outlets. These projects brought me an inner peace and allowed my mind to settle after a busy and sometime hectic week. I started my career in the coffee industry and find enjoyment working with coffee and the community surrounding it. I decided why not create something that allows me to work with left brain and combine that with my great passions, coffee and baking. And that's when my blog was born! I wanted to create a space where people could come to find amazing recipes that were both delicious and comforting, just like the ones my family and I love. My blog is a reflection of my passion for coffee, baking and my love of family, and I hope that it brings a little bit of joy and sweetness into your life.

Whether you're a seasoned pro or a total newbie in the kitchen, I've got plenty of recipes and tips to help you create something delicious. So grab a cup of coffee (or a glass of sweet tea, if you're feeling extra Southern), and let's get baking!
