My sister and I are starting a local porch pick-up micro bakery out of our home. The reason we decided to try was because my hobby is baking and cooking yummy things for all my loved ones. Also, I have an up-and-coming surgery that will take me out of work for a while but I can still knead bread while recovering from hip surgery. As a single mom, creativity is oftentimes my friend so we will be creative with what we have and see how it goes. In the meantime, I have been experimenting with new recipes which I hope to share here soon. Here’s one that I know my family loves and even though I’m not a spicy fan I can say they all loved it. I recently got these cute silicone proofing baskets that I’m really loving they are easy to clean and are so easy to store. Check them out here!
