Hi, I’m Geni.  I’m the baker and mostly the crumby part of this blog.  I have realized with this blog how much I enjoy writing, and that I have alot more to say about the world and my life than I originally banked on.

My twelve-year-old daughter, Zoie, is the sweet part.  She is our head photographer and superb sous chef.  My awesomely supportive husband is also part of the photography team and our resident tech geek. Baking is my solace, my fun and my passion.  If I’ve had a bad day, I bake…if I’ve had a good day, I bake and anything in between, I bake.  Bake sale at school, I’m there!  Need cupcakes for a class party….from scratch of course… 3 dozen, why not?

After my kitchen is clean and sparkly and looks untouched….I see a blank canvas, and my husband sees a disaster waiting to happen.  My kids, husband and dog reap the rewards of my baking though so there are not too many complaints about the revolving mess on my counters.  The dog mostly gets the crumbs on the floor, but I haven’t heard her complain yet either.  A chocoholic doesn’t even begin to touch the surface  nor explain my love and devotion to that beautiful, dark, smooth wonderfulness that must enter my mouth daily.  That’s it, no questions asked, I must have chocolate.

I also have a devotion to all things organic,  natural and preferably local.  Any recipe you see on this site, you can assume I have used ingredients which are organic if findable, economical and in my pantry at the moment.  Organic vanilla, flour, sugar, butter and eggs are staples here and so are fresh organic fruits and veggies.  We have just started a tiny organic garden on my patio in pots….we’ll see where that goes.   I’m not a gardener at heart. Dirt and worms are not as much my thing as butter and sugar, but my desire for a constant source of organic ingredients inspires me to trudge on with it.

I truly appreciate you stopping by so leave me a comment, and let me know how the recipes work out for you.  I hope you find your time is well spent here at Sweet and Crumby.

Sincerely,

Geni
