I’m thankful that I am relentless about my work. This is the best way to occasionally get a huge W.

It takes me a long, long time to process accomplishments because in my mind I was simply doing what needed to be done

Met my self-imposed deadline for a very special-to-me project, through intense grief. Happy Jupiter in Leo✨

Nowhere on the internet today can hold me the way 2012 tumblr held me

A garden cake

Calling my grandma to check on her only to hear her crying. Stick a knife in my heart ok

Cake (matcha strawberry)

Parallel parked perfectly 2nite, even with someone watching me🙂‍↔️

Check on your strong ass independent friends, they might not be feeling so strong ass right now

One of my favorite tarot readers quitting the tarot and deleting all her video readings because she “found Jesus”……

Rachel Pollack’s Seventy-Eight Degrees of Wisdom is one of those books I pick up again and again and each time learn something I didn’t clock the previous read

AT SOME POINT THE TIDES WILL TURN IN MY FAVOR AND SOMETHING GOOD WILL HAPPEN TO ME AGAIN.

It’s looking like I won’t be able to make it home for my grandfather’s rosary/funeral in a few weeks, which is a heartbreak on top of a heartbreak. Being at the Pacific Ocean (specifically) would have been really healing

My cake flower vendor brought me two extra bouquets for condolences

Though I can on occasion enjoy a ham & cheese croissant, they kinda bore me. it’s actually so easy for a bakery to offer only vegetarian pastry and not use any meat at all

It’s fucking with me that I can’t take time off this week after losing my grandpa, it’s just right back into the swing of things. I want to disassociate while watching Bravo, I don’t want to do baker’s math. Life really just goes on

I thought grief would make me shun my phone but actually I feel compelled to post lol

My edible has hit but I feel physically and mystically closer to my grandfather in death than I did when he was alive and a thousands of miles away because he’s everywhere now

I love Instagram because you can post about your grandfather dying and people will unfollow you lollll

My grandfather was the fatherly presence in my life. My bio dad was a deadbeat and I never felt like I would have benefited much from having him around since my life has always been full to the brim with grandpa but also WOMEN and the matriarchy that adored me. And now it’s just us girls.

How I’ll remember him lol

I got 41 years with my grandfather, but the titan left this realm today. You expect to lose your grandparents. You live with the knowledge that someday they will be gone, but when I got the phone call it still took my breath away

Kim Severson chatted with me about PALETAS for Garden & Gun mag gardenandgun.com/recipe/fruit...

potato, green onion, and mozzarella focaccia. - we’re getting close to the $10k goal. $8,104 raised so far. let’s hit 9k today 💛 giveahand.com/fundraiser/v...

Y’all ready to help out a queer baker this Pride Month? I launched a fundraiser to take my bakery into its next chapter. Any amount is appreciated - a few bucks or what you’d spend on a cannoli. If you’re not in a position to donate, please share this post. giveahand.com/fundraiser/v...

I’m posting this everywhere today — even here, where no one pays me any ATTENTION

Conchas looked cute today

Happy Pride JK Rowling 😌

I don’t hop on trends (cordatillo cake, aka pink cake) because that’s lame, but I do have thoughts about pan dulce’s rise in the gen pop consciousness.

Having a self-fulfilling prophecy that looks to be on its way to coming true👀

Clocked in at the concha factory

Reading the Pope’s stunning 200 page manifesto against AI…..I’m Catholic again today, baby.

im fucking enraged lmao these ai companies offering shortform video creators $40-$50k just to make one (1) nice post about them, telling them they don't have to disclose that it's paid-- lifechanging $$ for most ppl & they know it. most creatives hanging on by a thread & they know it.

Anyway it’s dahlia season

Someone asked if I was doing anything special with the bakery for the World Cup lol. No. The construction the city has been doing for this event the last several months has prob taken time off every Atlanta driver’s life, including myself, and i resent that.

This is what’s up

EXCITING NEWS after a rough start to the year. First: an alt-logo made by longtime At Heart friend and designer @goodspeed.bsky.social

Rancho Gordo sending cease-and-desist letters for “bean club” usage is so hilarious loooool. Listen, I will use Rancho Gordo beans in my empanadas when I see them IN-STORE, but one thing I’ve never done is subscribe to the cult of its founder.

Rancho Gordo has decided to tank its cuddly image by sending cease-and-desist letters to other businesses using the words "bean club". I do not think this will work out the way they hope it will. www.sfchronicle.com/food/article...

I do think things are changing, but French pastry being the gospel above all is grating. As a MEXICAN PANADERA, first and foremost, my wholehearted devotion is to Mexican pan dulce.

Recipe: At Heart Panaderia’s eggplant and goat cheese galette Here's the recipe for the eggplant and goat cheese galette from baker Teresa Finney of At Heart Panaderia, an easy savory alternative to pie that can be served alone or with a salad.

Some new (old) work for At Heart Panadería in Atlanta—a riso-printed cookbook zine <3

Back at my old stomping ground this weekend for Easter. I’ll have whole cakes! (6”, 2 layer; decorated like Easter eggs🙂‍↔️)

“Cooking is a way of establishing ourselves as bodies in the world. In cooking, you need to let your intelligence escape the confines of the mind and take up residence in the senses, in touch and taste and smell. But cooking also answers deeper needs.” Nigella x FT!

People feel comfortable inserting diet culture language/beliefs into a short exchange with me at my pop ups ALL THE TIME. Please stop this. Ive done the work of unlearning decades of diet culture stranglehold & don’t wish to join in on beating up the self, the body for purchasing a slice of cake

Idk my customer wanted a similar design of the ashtray & cig cake made popular by a Charli xcx repost and I simply live to serve!!!!! I’m calling this one “A Cig Break in the Garden”

New episode this week with the lovely Teresa Finney @atheartpanadera.bsky.social She speaks about her cottage bakery, ingredient sourcing, the relationship between baking & the body, and the role she sees bakers playing in serving their communities. #microbakery www.anthrodish.com/episodes/ter...

My cake decorating class tomorrow will basically consist of a buttercream demo, further explanation on this piece I wrote on safe practices for florals on cakes, and me bossing everyone around😈 substack.com/home/post/p-...

MENU🫡❤️‍🔥🍓 Atlanta, yall might wanna pull up for this one

Look at today’s cake (it’s coconut cake layers, citrus curd, coconut sugar buttercream)
