Looking at facebook memories and apparently today is cinnamon chip scone day

Lots of great food options 🥰

This Saturday will be our last Hope Farmers Market of the season and we’ve got a stellar lineup of food trucks coming! Join us for fall produce, tasty baked goods and beautiful handmade crafts. Can’t wait to see you there!

If you live in this house... I probably do have a sweet treat at the ready!

I probably have something prepped.

Or I definitely have ingredients to throw together a dessert/pastry on the fly.

Cinnamon chip scones for the billionth time

In the next 12 days....I will work 11 days...

I will work for 4 different jobs.

I will help making food for 3 different weddings
[and that doesn't include a wedding next week Kyle Bulfer is doing alone! You know after helping out at Ye Olde Fish House for the Toys for Tots breakfast!]

I will go support Kyle as he competes at World Food Championships.

I will somehow be a mom and still find time to cuddle our dogs.

And yet I am sitting here trying to figure out when I have time to bake things 🙃

Thank you all for the support, and thank God for all the opportunities I have been offered.

If you're my kid, yes you can eat pie for breakfast.

My reasoning was... it was brown sugar and its not that different than a poptart. Plus the other pie has apples.. that is healthy. 🤓

And it's like fall break or whatever.

Being a parent is the coolest.

[Honestly this was my idea and suggestion. Not even the kids]

Was the catering successful? Yes.

I was very ecstatic that my menu was well received when pitched. It wasn't super crazy, but sometimes people push very hard for a simple menu.

Kyle had parent teacher conferences so I was going to be mostly alone. But I did feel I could accomplish this as long as I had a few hands and some help with prep.

But with catering everything is a hurry up and wait. It is a balance and dance with time. You can't be too early or the food is cold or sitting for hours. And you can't be too late or people get hungry.

And then comes the part where you have gotten the food ready, you have your pans set up, you are just about ready to take the wrap off and present the dishes... and before you make it the two steps to remove lids... the line has formed and people are filling plates.

And all the hard work, becomes just a memory if you didn't make it 30 seconds earlier to snap the pics... the opportunity is gone. Your pans of beautifully garnished foods are demolished.

No pics of my finished, garnished foods.[I am here to make food not have a photo sesh] No pics of my completed desserts. Only pics I snapped in my moments alone prepping.

But.

While shopping for ingredients the cashier said "you have really interesting items!" ... I have never felt so "seen" 😅

People got dessert... people brought people back up and told them which to get. People saw one person with a to-go box... and then I kept getting asked for them because they were full but didn't want to leave without dessert.

And that... is all the thanks I need.

I am so grateful for the opportunities. I love being able to do what I love.

Thanks for all the support. I truly love what I do 🥰

[Also, I totally used store bought crust for those pies because 1. Where the f are my pie plates?! And 2. I made five different desserts and baked edible leaf garnishes, two meat proteins, a vegan protein, 28 lbs of potatoes, cut up 7 different veggies for my medley, made gravy. Soooo I picked my battles. 😋]

Hey everyone!

Hope your week is off to a good start. We are loving this weather 😍😍🥰🥰

We have only two more public openings on the calendar for this year. With catering, cooking competitions, kids and real jobs we have cut back a lot on openings.

We are getting ready for next week where Kyle Bulfer will be competing in World Food Championships ! His concept of "root, leaf, flower and seed" was born from him asking me to help him put into words a little about who he is as a chef. After some reflection I gave him the words and explained how I saw it as a representation of his journey as a chef... from his first jobs to working all the way up, and now teaching... "seed" represents passing on all you have become to the next generation. And he has really been doing some exciting things [uh, a highschool catering company.. they are DOING that!]

So if you wanna see us, either come watch Kyle compete in the Vegetarian Competition at World Foods next week [open to the public with ticket purchase... see chefs from all over, including a former white house chef!]

Or come out to Hope Farmers Market that Saturday to hear all about it.

Big special thanks to my lovely cousin, librarian extraordinaire/makerspace queen Jeannie Eberenz for helping me use the glowforge for these boards for Kyle's table 🥰
