Hi SWEET Friends.
I am Christine and I am so happy you buzzed by.
It goes without saying that I LOVE to bake, so it would be silly to reiterate that to you. But how did I end up here – how did Sweet Bees come to be? For as long as I can remember, baking has been a passion of mine. I did not grow up under the wings of bakers, but I have always enjoyed bringing ingredients together to create sweet treats. Over the years, as family and friends would request desserts, I knew that baking was to become my legacy rather than just my favorite past time. There is a saying that we eat with our eyes first, but you’ll never catch me boasting about creating the most picturesque sweets. My philosophy is that flavor and quality create more of a lasting memory than sight. And who hasn’t heard that saying: “the quickest way to the heart is through the tummy”? BINGO!!
When I am not baking, I am soaking up my family. I am happily sharing my life with my husband, Chris. In addition to my best half, I have two children: 20 year old daughter, Paisley – she is wise beyond her years and loving the life she is living in Texas, and 13 year old son, Deegan – he has a heart as deep as the ocean, loves architecture and design, and can usually make anyone laugh. Our family also has two Golden Retrievers: Dexter (9) and Ace (less than 1… LOTS of puppy!). If I am not with my family, you can bet I am enjoying the company of good friends. That goes hand-in-hand with good food AND good drinks! Time spent with friends is usually overflowing with laughter and I couldn’t imagine it any other way.
