Introducing Our New Baker!

After our normal, exuberant morning greeting, Madison told me the best news ever. 
"So I have this friend..."
...Yes?
"And she loooovvves to bake! And I think it would be a great idea if she worked for us. And like, did all of our baking. She's a really, really sweet girl and she makes amazing treats! I lived with her for awhile. It was so great. I didn't have to go shopping for like 2 months. If I was hungry, I'd just eat baked goods!" she explained with a smile.
Needless to say, my ears were perked after the first sentence. 
"You mean we're going to hire someone just to curb my maddening hunger for sweets?" 
Good ol' Madison. Always telling me what I needed to hear. 

Anyway...meet Hannah. And it's true. She is great.

{Pumpkin Whoopie Pies! Little Debbie should never show her face again.}

{Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins and Coconut Macroons.}

{Add a little chocolate?}

{Vanilla Chai Tea Cupcakes. Mmmm.}

{Shortcake cupcakes with fresh strawberry whipped frosting.}

{This is my brain on treats...}

Ready for this??
She's come along way in three years and has done a lot in between! Birthdays and special occasions has kept her busy with baking for the past two. Needless to say she's been a hit at lunch. 
"It's the simple joy of doing something for someone else."
Upbeat and absolutely wonderful, she asked that I keep her a secret. "The lady in the apron, if you may..." 
But I couldn't help it...
 {Hannah!}
