Where the joy of baking began
From the warmth of my grandmother's kitchen, to lessons learned from my Aunt Betty, Aunt Mary Lee, and my mother, baking has always been my happy place. It’s a joy to create something that brings smiles, knowing that food has a magical way of bringing people together — through good times, tough times, celebrations, and everyday moments. The greatest reward? Seeing a total stranger find happiness in something I’ve made, creating a happy memory just for them.
A family affair, baked with passion
The Bun & Bean was born from a deep love for baking. While my family — my amazing husband O'Brien, who just so happens to be a chef, my girls, grandkids, and my fur babies Loki and Morpheus — are my greatest loves, baking comes in a very close second. It's a passion I take seriously, honed through generations of incredible women in my life, and perfected with the support of my culinary-expert husband. Every bun, bagel, and cookie is a testament to this love and dedication.
"I bake memories into every treat I make."

Nourishing souls, one bake at a time
For over 30 years as a nurse, I found pride in helping others. That same heart for care extends to The Bun & Bean. This venture wouldn't be possible without the unwavering support, taste-testing, and gentle nudges from my incredible family. Their belief in my dream to share comfort and joy through food is the secret ingredient in every batch. We believe good food nourishes not just the body, but the soul, creating lasting connections.
