About Fold Gently

My friends call me “D.” I read every night, bake every weekend, and travel when I can.

As a kid, whenever my family took a trip, I wrote a “travel guide” (illustrated in crayon) about everything we did.

When I was 12 years old, I started baking from scratch and collecting recipes, and I haven’t stopped.

Because I was so shy, the public library became a second home. Everyone had to be quiet in the library, and there were all those books!

Now, Fold Gently combines the places, recipes, and books I love, so you might discover and love them, too.

“Fold gently” is a baking technique for combining ingredients into a light, airy mixture, which is how I like to approach everything here.

If you’re a traveler, a baker, or a reader, you know that looking for your new favorite thing is as much fun as finding it.

I’m still a little shy, which is why I keep my name and face out of the blog. No one pays me for recommendations, and I make no money from the blog. I have a day job, and this is one of my hobbies.

I hope Fold Gently becomes a favorite place to visit. Subscribe and keep coming back. You never know what you’ll find.

See you soon!
