I Miss My Bakery But I Don’t Miss That Version of Me

Lately, I’ve been missing the bakery. Not in a “let’s reopen tomorrow” kind of way. Not in a regret-filled, spiral-down-the-rabbit-hole way. Just in a quiet, nostalgic, flour-dusted kind of way.

🦃 Thanksgiving Traditions I Swore I’d Keep (and the Ones I’ve Had to Let Go)

For most of my life, Thanksgiving meant a house full of people: grandparents, cousins, friends — the smell of cornbread dressing, laughter echoing from the kitchen, and at least one relative asking if we really needed that many side dishes (we did). It was noisy, messy, wonderful chaos. A celebration that sometimes started days before …

🧈✨ Daily Bread (and Other Things I Forget to Thank God For)

Some mornings, I wake up and realize I’ve been running on fumes and iced coffee for far too long — the kind of days where gratitude feels like a distant luxury. But lately, God’s been reminding me that daily bread doesn’t always come as miracles or breakthroughs. Sometimes it’s just biscuits. Literal, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth biscuits …
