This sums up my sunday whilst social distancing: I’m going to find joy and peace in my work (thank you all for the huge support!) I’m going to call my parents. I’m going to bike+walk the dogs with Brian, and I’m going to practice piano and make vanilla bean scones. Grateful for every moment. Drop a few lines of gratitude below: ... #borderlandsbakery #sacramento #smallbusiness #sugarcookies #decoratedcookies #buzzfeedfood #buzzfeedtasty #cookiedecorating #royalicing #instafood #instadessert #cookiedecorator #diycookies #cookietutorial #quarantinecookies #butterflies #butterflycookies

For those of you at home with the kiddos looking for something to do, I’m publishing a set of free decorating guides, starting with this summer one you see here-- the PDF download is available on my blog! Swipe to see a screen shot of the guide! I provide the materials list and step-by-step directions on how to achieve these simple designs-- follow along at home. I hope you enjoy! Here’s the thing-- these guides take a lot of time to put together… If you find this useful or want more of these, let me know below. Also open to doing themes per your request.. I’d also love to hear what YOU want to see the most while we adapt to a more digital world -- I’m listening!

Omg you guys 😩we are SOLD OUT. #Limited cookie kits are listed on the website. Please carefully read everything in the listing description if you’re interested in one. We’re all making tough decisions right now and while not perfect, this is the lowest risk way I can see of to keep people inside as much as possible. I’ll leave it at this for now and hope the listing will answer all your questions! Stay safe. Stay sane. Thank you to all the folks on the front lines. Forever grateful. And thank you to everyone who has made any kind of purchase for supplies on the website the last month-- we have set aside some money and will be securing face mask donations to be sent direct to hospitals in Sac and some other parts of the country. THANK YOU. ...

We’ve all had to make changes to adapt to our current reality. I’m no different. With all my classes and traveling canceled until things improve, I’m doing more of something I usually do less of.... I’m going to offer more DIY kits. There will be 4 themes to choose from, $15 each for a half doz. Kit with instructions & everything you need, pickup will be a porch contact-less pickup from my home or I will deliver, TBD. Kit options will be posted by Tuesday evening on my website. Would also like to offer how grateful I am for our situation and the community-- please keep looking out for each other. Stay tuned, so much more to come!

In this really weird time I wanted to share some thoughts -- This is my version of the compost cookie or kitchen sink cookie. It took 18 months of experimentation to get it here (after inability to duplicate results of milk bar...), and many of you have followed along in my IG stories over the last year on this journey. I wasn’t going to release this recipe until I release my cookbook (next year)-- but I think all that is going out the window. Over the next few weeks of social isolation, I’ll be sharing my favorite recipes for various baked goods that I was saving for the book, but will be either releasing on the blog or in the shop. I’m also going to donate 50% of all digital product proceeds for the next few months to local businesses in need. So if you’re someone who has already purchased a digital product in the last few days-- thank you. Your support has impacted many lives. Please take good care of each other. Practice social distancing. Do some self reflection. Please stop hoarding tp 😆 Together, We’ll get past this. Check in with me below 👇👇👇
