ABOUT


My name is Patricia and I live in the Chicago suburbs with my husband Dan, fur baby Remi and our fiery little Miss and soon-to-arrive Little Mister.

 I’m a classically trained pastry chef (hence the baker portion of baker and bun); I attended the lauded Culinary Institute of America where I was the valedictorian of my class...yes, I'm a nerd!  This is all to say that I'm not your average housewife cookie baker.  I hate the word "foodie" but I love learning about food and experimenting in the kitchen.



The “bun” portion of the blog is a bit of word play because I love bread but it’s also a nod to our Little Miss.

Most of the photos on this blog are my own, however, I’ll note any exceptions in posts as my mom is a photographer and I'll likely use her photos quite a bit!  The one on this page and on the side bar are taken by the ever talented Alicia of Alicia's Photography www.alicias.com.      

My lovely logo was designed by Laura Terry www.lauraterrycom; she is patient and creative and wonderful to work with if you are ever in need of something unique.  She also has wonderful prints; if we have a boy I'm definitely decorating his room with a few of her fox sketches.  

Lastly, this blog was designed by Danielle Burkleo www.danielleburkleo.com; I found her through a wonderful camp friend of mine and she made the design process so simple and enjoyable; I HIGHLY recommend her if your blog needs help! 

Much love,
