About Me

IMG_6900

I’m just a girl. But not a girl who is quite as cool as Gwen Stefani. Ok, I can be pretty darn cool sometimes.

I love lame jokes, bad horror flicks, ultra-soft blankies, red lipstick, football ( Go Texans!!), fruit of all kinds, sprinkles, long hugs, s’mores, peanut butter, the color mint, zombies and a good run to clear my head. I could seriously go on, but I’m fairly certain that I can hear you rolling your eyes at me.

I hate bacon, (yes, I’m serious. Yes, I’ve tried it. No, this isn’t a joke. Please stop looking at me like that.) judgment, doubt, clean smelling candles, drama, ultra cold rooms, buyers remorse, umbrellas that don’t work properly and burpees.

Let’s get real for a second: I used this blog as an outlet for my creativity strictly driven by butter and sugar. This didn’t work for me, I was unhappy and unhealthy. I didn’t like myself and that was unacceptable. It was time to assess the damage and move in the right direction. So, I stepped away from my blog to figure out what was important and get a handle on how I need to proceed with my life to obtain the balance I needed. I think I’ve finally got it. So, I’m back. Hey y’all!

Do understand: I’m under construction. I joined a gym, grabbed my sister from another mister, did my research (so much to learn!) and have overhauled my eating habits. And in turn, my life. That took a lot of motivation, support, talking to myself, breakdowns, binges, sweat and tears. I’m not here to tell you how to live your life. I’m certainly not here to lecture you about what is good and bad for you. If you really want to know, look it up and act accordingly. This is not a health blog and I am no physician. I am not perfect and I refuse to tell you to do as I do. I’m here for the same reason that you are: I love food. And I want to share it with you. Along with crappy jokes, unsolicited movie reviews, bloopers, pointless banter and lots of hugs.

So grab a fork, a seat and let’s laugh together. Word.

  1. Hey Jeannette, i tried emailing you a while ago but I suspect it went to junk or something. Anyway, just want to tell u that I really enjoy reading your blog and I discover many many similarities between us (apart from the name and the love for baking). I’ve put up your link on my newly-set up blog. Keep baking!! 🙂

  2. Not sure why it took me this long to read your profile. A million amens to it! It’s crazy how much being a serious baker turns your life around. I’m all about buying baked goods in bulk.

    🙂 I love your blog!

  4. Hi Jeannette, I’m all the way in the U.K and I loved checking your blog. I found we had quite a few things in common – especially the anti-bacon thing! I noticed you haven’t posted in a while? Please come back? If not for me, for the Queen of England? 🙂
