Had an experience today that basically makes me not want to work with straight dudes in the food space ever. I still maintain that Atlanta wanting so bad to be seen as a ~food city~ brings out the industry’s scarcity mindset and yall can miss me with this bullshit.

Using chatgpt to write your email inviting me to cater your coworking event for no payment and presenting it as some marvelous opportunity you’re bestowing upon me is diabolical lol

I really love this story my pal Dayna Evans wrote for Wordloaf today, all about her summer "Pastry Passport" program, a collaboration with other bakers from around the world (including me and @atheartpanadera.bsky.social!):

A World of Good
Over a summer of collaborating with bakers from Singapore to Australia to Cape Verde, I encountered connection, empathy, and curiosity in ways that feel increasingly harder to come by

fun Friday news. next weekend I’ll be popping up at Sagra the morning of the Strut. I’ll have cannoli and bombolini and Sagra will have coffee. 10% of sales will go to Intown Cares, an organization that helps provide housing and food security to our neighbors in ATL.

I have had some great teachers in this life, and she was the one who taught me what I could call the survival techniques to being a writer. I wouldn't have made it this far without her. I'm grateful to her, for her. Rest in peace, Annie.

Sometimes, like now, it kinda pains me to have to hand over the cakes to my customer bc I will miss it. Brown butter cake layers, fig jam filling, fig leaf buttercream & hibiscus accent buttercream.

Last week while making brioche my stand mixer I’m trying to replace was making a crunchy sound, and then a sound I can only describe as a scream. So anyway that’s why I’m crowdfunding

When a good and decent person leaves this world, I think the best thing we can do to honor them is to try to put even more goodness and decency into the world. It's not that we can replace them or their contribution. It's just that we need it all the more now that they're gone.

A baker I really respect told me today that everything I make has consistency, that every picture I’ve posted of my market pastries basically look identical. Consistency is the hardest thing to accomplish, I think, in production baking so HELL YEAH

I don’t want to be “kind of chic”, I want to be vibrant and kind of loud and goofy and salty and pretty vulgar and completely myself, actually.
