I had such a lovely time chatting with highly qualified and credentialed Archaeodeath Professor Howard Williams who seemed to think I had something worth hearing on the subject! Follow him on TikTok at archaeodeath for fascinating finds and debunking weird alt-right Viking content.

An absolutely charmed life. Afternoons spent sleeping in a backpack on a bed of stuffed animals after devouring a dishful of peas.

The same kid who wants to be Senshi for Halloween suggested pumpkin spice as the new flavor for pop tarts in the bakery. I bought him a nice wok to use for his costume. He’s more excited to cook with the wok than about trick or treating 😂❤️🥘

I love the ride to Ren Faire and the ride back when you stop for gas or a pre-game taco and you’re just wildly out of context ✨

I live the day when your languishing propagation chooses life and just pretends none of the last two weeks’ drama happened.
Pancake leaf succulent thing. I very clearly do not know what this is, but it has chosen life, and is making little leaves.

A bittersweet thing: my Great Aunt, who lives very far away from me, is beginning to lose her cognitive abilities, and so every time my brother goes to visit her, he has to tell her again that I have opened a bakery. He says she is very impressed and happy, every time.

Good lord I love a chatty child. Bring your social little toddler into the bakery - I want to hear what their dog’s name is and what they ate for breakfast. You will be hard pressed not to leave with a free pastry. Absolutely makes my morning.

It dipped below 80° today. Every dish in the bakery is clean. I ate birria quesadillas with guacamole all day. And I have finished editing Draft 4 of the manuscript of Death to the Author. I feel so light 🦋

Early morning crippling anxiety attack: did I just write a whole-ass book making fun of a villainous author who does bad world-building and character development…AS MY FIRST BOOK?? Hyperventilating at my own hubris. This continues to be the most uncomfortably meta thing that has ever happened to me.

There’s an elderly gentleman who comes into my bakery on weekdays and always asks if I will slice the loaf he buys. I do - happy to help. Today I found out why: he takes it down to the gas station/coffee shop and shares it with 5 or 6 other old guys who meet up for morning coffee ❤️

From the bakery: Blue butterfly pea flower steeped in hot water colors the sourdough blue - doesn’t affect the flavor but it does potentially convey some health benefits to brain and eye function! The resting bunny shape of the slices is why the opening on the top of the loaf is called the “ear.”

Sitting in my car at 10am at a QuikTrip eating spicy beef jerky and drinking a coffe-machine mocha while I wait for a guy to come sign an insurance check - I’m either about to be in a 90s comedy heist or I’m just a big raccoon.

I talk to my oven and blow her a kiss every time I shut her down - sometimes the customers hear me and I do not care how crazy it sounds. My girl is 50+ years old and still making bread. She deserves all the kisses.
