A promotional graphic for #BakeOnceAWeek Compound Butter featuring five hand-wrapped butters labeled Sandwich Sprinkle, Vanilla Maple-Honey, Miso Scallion, Smoked Black Garlic, and Strawberry Honey. Text reads: “Small-batch. Hand-whipped. Holiday-ready. Perfect for gatherings & host gifts!” Flavors listed: Miso-Scallion, Smoked Black Garlic, Sandwich Sprinkle, Strawberry Honey, and Vanilla Maple Honey. Icons indicate “Order by Nov 15,” “Orders ship Nov 17,” and “Shipped to your door.” A Jamaican flag icon notes: “Proceeds go to rebuilding Kindred On The Rock.” The bottom text reads: “Available in 3-Packs & 5-Packs. Order Here. bit.ly/CompoundButterBatons.” The background resembles parchment paper with warm brown and cream tones.

For one week only, all proceeds from my #BakeOnceAWeek Compound Butter sale will support Kindred On The Rock, Staceyann Chin’s community farm in Jamaica, devastated by the hurricane.

Each small-batch baton = a seed toward rebuilding. 💛

#grateful for new-to-me recipe. I used date syrup for sweetener. They are super tasty!

I wish everyone had access to clean water and enough food.

Photos of the brownies and in process baking in #ninjacombi cooker.

Choc-chip big batch for #BakeOnceAWeek - ICYMI I wrote about how baking each week for 7 years has changed & nurtured me: substack.com/home/post/p-...

8) I am an avid baker and have practicing my own form of worship #BakeOnceAWeek for 8 years now. I bake something every week (most week more than 1 thing) - I share results here but not as a professional baker. I do claim #BakeSky tho!

Update! #BakeOnceAWeek #BakeSky

Recipe was perfect.
Next time my execution will be - just a few small tweaks.

A close-up of the cover of the cookbook “Life Is What You Bake It” by Vallery Lomas. The cover features a smiling Vallery Lomas wearing an apron, holding a spoon, and drizzling glaze over a beautifully baked bundt cake on a pink cake stand. The text reads: “Life Is What You Bake It: Recipes, stories & inspiration to bake your way to the top.” At the top left, it mentions Vallery Lomas as the “Winner of The Great American Baking Show.” The cover exudes warmth and creativity, celebrating baking as both an art and a personal journey.

I decided to make donuts from scratch tomorrow - specifically Vallery Lomas' Tiger Donuts from her amazing Life Is What You Bake It cookbook - and that new K-Dot album is gonna be the soundtrack.
#BakeSky #BakeOnceAWeek

A freshly baked round loaf of golden brown bread cooling on a wire rack on a granite countertop. The bread consists of several connected rolls, creating a pull-apart style loaf. In the background, there are baking tools and ingredients, including small bowls of butter, flour, and other baking items. A hand is partially visible in the bottom right corner, reaching toward the bread. The image conveys a cozy and homemade baking atmosphere.

Alright - Ready for my first #BakeSky post! One of my self-care commitments is to #BakeOnceAWeek - I've been doing this practice for almost 7 years and it truly grounds me. Even in the worst weeks, I am able to claim 1 win. This week - Japanese Milk Rolls. Nom. What other bakers should I following?
