About Me

Welcome to the Sweetie Petitti Blog. I am a long time culinary employee, working retail for almost 18 years at Williams Sonoma. Sadly the store is no longer in Memphis, and I surely miss the holiday season there.    I have taught dozens of cooking classes, at the store, Whole Foods, and privately, and love everything about the kitchen.

I am also an award winning sewing instructor with my own line of sewing DVDs. A Simple Quilt won me a first place Telly Award in 2005. But I am also featured on Home Decor and Making Handbags. I sometimes get creative in the sewing studio and will blog about that with a post on HipLineMedia as well.

I am crazy about sugar cookies and used to make a whole lot of them! Currently I am teaching Pilates and not baking like I used to!  My body is most grateful, but I fire up the ovens for my grands without complaint!!!

I am a lifelong learner, and take everyday as an opportunity to grasp something new. Stop by often and share your adventures in the kitchen! What are ya waiting for? Get in there!

These are the original loves of my life, but now we have spouses and grands...life is good.
