Front Porch: New recipe for a quick treat

Hi Beautiful,

What a July.

Between the release of the paperback version of Collecting Confidence and the launch of my Love Who You Are Holiday Home collection, I’ve been busier than a one-legged man in a butt kicking contest.

And that calls for a celebration, which is why I wanted to share one of my favorite pound cake recipes. It’s fast and easy and super yummy—perfect for a quick treat no matter how busy you are.
