My Story

I was five years old when I first moved here from India.

I was also five years old when I made my first cookie. 

I had my little E-Z bake oven and in that moment I was truly happy. 

​

Life has a funny way of making you forget the things that bring you joy, 

because we have a funny way of complicating life so that we forget.

​

I worked in some of the best Michelin starred restaurants for many years.

Since my personal passion was cooking, it was the ideal place for learning.

And I wanted to learn the best techniques, highest quality ingredients

and how to bring out the most flavor in a dish.

​

But I was left feeling unfulfilled.  Why?

Because restaurants were always just an

ends to justify some other dream.

I compartmentalized my passion for cooking as just a hobby.

I used restaurants as a way to make a living

so I could achieve something else I deemed "greater".

 

Who knew it would take a Pandemic to

bring me my beautiful Ah-Ha moment. 

You know when you realize that everything you have

done in your life had a part in realizing your true purpose?    

 

For me it was remembering that five year old girl with her E-Z bake oven. 

That's when I realized I had come full circle.

I rediscovered that part of myself that made me

feel at peace and grounded in who I was.

The real reason I started working in restaurants in the first place.

 

I Love to cook. I Love to bake. That is how I best express my Love.

 

Our cookies are Simply from my heart to yours. 

And I truly hope they are something that can bring you

or your loved ones some joy. 

Or even better, that you enjoy them together.
