About the Baker

My name is Halee and I love food (who doesn't?). I am originally from San Antonio, Texas (home of the San Antonio Spurs and tacos). Growing up, I never really cooked much but I did enjoy helping my mom in the kitchen, especially during the holidays. After moving to England to be with my fiancé, I found myself with a lot of time on my hands while he was at work. I started waking up early to make him breakfast and finding tasty and savory meals for dinner. I then filled my afternoons with my baking experiments, and I fell in love (and became a bit obsessed!) Now I try to think of or find other recipes that inspire me. I love finding recipes and being able to change ingredients within them to make them more suitable for my taste buds (and my fiancés’).

What was I doing before I moved and started spending all my time in the kitchen? I actually was teaching! I graduated from the University of Texas at San Antonio and got my Bachelor’s Degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. I taught Pre-K for a year and enjoyed it, even with its ups and downs. My fiancé and I met and fell in love, which is why I ultimately decided to move to England. I couldn't be happier with the way things have turned out, not only because I found the man of my dreams, but also because I found baking. I am truly passionate about it. I dream about it for crying out loud! I know my fiancé is tired of hearing about all of my ideas, but he deals with it.

I am always looking for new ideas that are unique and appealing. Always feel free to leave me some tips, comments, advice, or critiques. Thanks and hope you enjoy!
