Ope! Here there.

I’m Staci, a writer and baker at home in Minnesota. Even in the age of digital, I am hooked on hand-written recipes and community cookbooks. Our most memorable meals come from home cooks, handed-down recipes, and our favorite small-town cafes and bakeries.  Welcome to Random Sweets and my podcast Funeral Potatoes & Wool Mittens. Learn more about me here.

Sweet wishes!
