What having Cleveland's 5th most sinful sweet means to me:)

I can do anything I put my mind to.

I don’t have to do what is expected of me, I can do what I want.

I can create beautiful and unforgettable sweets without all the fluff and frosting- literally:)

I don’t have to do what everyone else does (cake and cupcakes)

There are many other amazing desserts besides cake (I always knew that but now, all of Cleveland knows too).

My pretzel salted caramel cheesecake beat every cake and cupcake in this competition that started with hundreds of entries (except the cannoli cake that won)

I am a badass baker.

I am creative.

I work 2x the amount of hours as a boss babe than I did in restaurants and I am much happier.

I am proud.

I am grateful.

I have an amazing support system.

I AM running a business all by myself, with no business background.

I am unstoppable.

The more I let go and open up, the more positive things happen in my life.

I am always learning.

I am always being challenged.

I am stronger than I give myself credit for most of the time.

I celebrate my wins.

I do not feel bad about celebrating my wins because I work my ass off.

I am doing what I love.

I am a teacher.

I am a student.

I am just a girl who decided to go for it,.

I choose to be happy and reach for my dreams.

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR LOVE AND EXCITEMENT.

I AM BLESSED, TIRED AND OHH SO PROUD.
