Cameron and Josh had a beautiful and pandemic-appropriate December wedding in 2020, that made for a special memory for me as well. It would be my final order for the year of delivering desserts as Mili’s Sweets, and it would be the very first wedding arrangements I would ever be hired to create via my small business as Glorified Hobby.

gingerbread joy
At home, once December hits and our Christmas tree is up, classic gingerbread cookies with royal icing will soon be made to enjoy and to share. Over the years, we have mastered this easy, stress-free recipe for rolling out and icing delicious bites that can be made gluten free, and are naturally made without eggs or nuts.
Mili’s best pork ribs
When I make my best pork ribs, it makes for a special occasion at home. My method makes for the tastiest, most tender ribs that you can enjoy any time of year. If you love ribs, and you love cooking at home, this is a skill you will want to keep. Prep is easily done either from a stock pot or pressure cooker, and finished either on the barbecue grill, or in the oven – whatever you feel like working with.
Hawaiian Style Sauce
I’m sharing my easy to make Hawaiian Style Sauce recipe, with authentic umami flavor, and the option for extra sweetness and/or spicy-heat. I finally wrote down my simplified classic, because I wanted to share this flavor that my family loves so much. When I make ribs, it’s like a special occasion, and this is the sauce I use!
This is an incredibly flavorful addition to meals prepared the way you love – whether grilling, baking, or sauteing a vegan, pescatarian, or carnivorous meal. This sauce is a naturally vegan recipe, made with honey and soy.
2020 view on Mili’s Sweets 10th anniversary
I am finally getting around to share what I was up to last year on this very weekend, when I invited family and friends, San Diego County venues, potential clients, and new and loyal customers alike, to my Mili’s Sweets tasting and anniversary party. In 2019, I was about to walk into my 10th year of doing business as Mili’s Sweets. It felt good to invest in myself and celebrate this special time. I chose the last weekend of September, because I would be actively booking for the new year, and I wanted to dedicate that joy to a beloved fan of my work: my dad.
