Welcome back to the Porch! Help yourself to some tea cakes and lemonade and settle in for a few minutes. In fact, you showed up just in time to help me with a little project I’m working on. All I need for you to do is tell me – what is your favorite kind of cookie? (Just send me an email and let me know!)
While I was in the kitchen baking those tea cakes you’re enjoying, I started wondering about who the first person was to actually bake a cookie. And as a random history buff, I had to go find the answer to that question. I never discovered an actual person, but I did learn a bit about the origins of this sweet treat.
Not only that, but I also learned a life lesson, about how baking cookies can easily apply to living a Simple Life. Listen in to learn more about the history of baking cookies, and how they may help you to be a bit braver about taking the next step in your own Simple Life journey!
