Welcome to everyday baking!

Hi friends! So glad you're here.

I've been dreaming up this project for months and I’m so excited to finally share it with all of you. My hope is that it will give you a chance to learn and try new things in the kitchen!

You might be wondering why I’m starting a different platform from my regular one on Preppy Kitchen. The simple answer? I love connecting with you all. Substack gives us a unique opportunity to hang out in a more interactive way and get to know each other on a more personal level (without algorithms getting in the way).

Welcome to everyday baking

I'm looking forward to diving deeper into all things baking with you! I spent over a decade teaching middle school math and science before turning to creating delicious recipes full-time, and I’m excited to bring my passion for teaching and food together on this platform, too. We'll get to explore unique recipes, experiment with techniques, and test out new ideas together.

I’ll also be in the chat to hear what you want to see in new books or recipes, and help guide you along your journey to become a better baker. I’ll share behind-the-scenes looks at new projects I'm working on, and of course, you’ll get to see what life is like at Hedge Hill Farm including what new adventures Brian, the boys, and I are up to.

Here’s what a paid subscriber receives:

• Each week, I’ll send out brand new, exclusive recipes only available here on everyday baking. (Don’t worry- I also include metric measurements in the recipes as always!)

• Once a month, I’ll share an ingredient spotlight focused on in-season produce or a product I found inspiring along with a few recipes featuring this ingredient to help broaden your skill set.

• At the end of each month, you’ll get a round up newsletter of the recipes, notes, and little snippets of behind-the-scenes from the past month.

• Access to the chat forum where you can directly ask me all of your questions about recipes from here or my cookbooks. I’ll also be polling you for new ideas, and sharing sneak peaks from recipe and book development. Plus, you can get to know other people in the everyday baking community, ask each other questions, and share your baking successes!

• Live video where you can tune in and ask me your questions!

• Exclusive video content that won’t be found on YouTube or Preppy Kitchen.

• And lots of other fun stuff we come up with together along the way!

I hope you'll not only learn something new, but also find as much joy in baking as I do. I'm so excited to get this started with all of you! The first recipe officially kicks off Sunday, September 14th. In the meantime, be sure to subscribe so you're one of the first to join my brand new Substack!

In the meantime, here’s a little preview of what’s to come:
