Hello friends! :) I’ve lived most of my life on the prairies in South Dakota. People don’t go out much to eat around there, so I learned to make delicious - warm your heart and tummy - meals for my family and friends. I also used to own Kari-Beri Cupcakes, where I made gourmet cupcakes and cookies that have creative fondant decorations and/or hand painted cookies. :)
