nice to meet you

Everybody has a love language. Making others feel valued, cared for, and at home is mine. And, apparently, I speak fluent food, because I’m rarely more in my element than when I’m planning and cooking for a big party or baking special treats to share with those I love.

Hi, I’m Grandpa Aaron and I live in Portland, Oregon with my husband, Hugh (a.k.a. Grandfather). Like each of the bakes you’ll find here, our lives are filled with (and often inspired by) dear friends, our very large extended family, and our four grandchildren. This blog is about sharing a deep piece of my heart and welcoming the rest of you into the little moments that bring total joy, meaning and unbridled pleasure to my world.

Come on in, make yourself comfortable, and enjoy!
