Happy Thursday Reader!

It's 1000 degrees here and I'm just out here doing my best squeezing the most out of the last month of summer, submerged in back-to-school energy (aka chaos) and slightly dipping my toe into fall 🍁 baking.

10 Irresistible Back-to-School Baking Recipes is about to make everything a whole lot sweeter for everyone (going back to school or not). It has everything you need to bake your way to a smoother week, from delicious snacks to easy grab-and-go breakfasts.

Inside, you'll find some of my favorite back-pocket bakes, including a decadent banana cake and an incredible everyday chocolate chip cookie (they're so easy and I love πŸ’• them!). These are the no-fuss, big-flavor recipes that will help stock our pantries. Yay!
