Back to school bakes


Hi there, Reader,

Back to school week is a strange one. Some of you are celebrating whether it's the first day of kindergarten or the last kid (finally!) out the door.

And some of you are sitting with it a little differently, missing the noise already and wishing summer lasted longer. Maybe you have a quiet house for the first time in years. Or are a grandmom.

Because of that, today's email is all baking and creating cozy moments with a kitchen that smells amazing. Here are some of my August baking go-to's:

Nostalgic cookies that are a campfire in cookie form.

Bake up a pan of these easy bars when the kids bring friends home or you have a whole team dinner of hungry players.

Part breakfast bar, part coffee dessert make this one pan dessert a winner.
