While pawing through my family’s collection of DVDs this past Friday night, searching for something to watch while cuddled up in a warm blanket as rain poured down outside, I came across one my grandfather gave us over a decade ago: You’ve Got Mail.
Although I adore the entire movie, especially the scene where the two main characters meet at Café Lalo, a famous Manhattan eatery with a huge display case full of decadent desserts (probably because of the baker in me!), the first few minutes of the film still hold one of my favorite lines from Meg Ryan.
“I turn on my computer. I wait impatiently as it connects. I go online, and my breath catches in my chest until I hear three little words: You’ve got mail. I hear nothing. Not even a sound on the streets of New York, just the beating of my own heart. I have mail. From you.”
That’s exactly the way I feel when I see a comment from you here on my blog or on Facebook… Or when you post a picture of one of my recipes that you’ve tried on Instagram… Or when you write me that you’ve shared my blog with your family and friends…
It’s the best feeling in the world. And all of those little things that you do, those small actions that make my heart so happy, have actually enabled me to turn Amy’s Healthy Baking into my full-time job. I’m truly grateful for what you’ve done for me!
So to say thank you, I’m putting the spotlight back on you today! Here are some of the recipes that you’ve tried and pictures that you’ve shared on Instagram. I truly appreciate each and every time you do that; it really means the world to me! ♥

You’re welcome Ann! And thank YOU for trying my recipe! 🙂 I can’t wait to see what you pick next!
I made your oatmeal and blueberry breakfast cookies. They are SO good. I doubled the recipe so I could take 2 cookies to work with me for breakfast. YUM! This recipe is a definite keeper. Thank you and keep those recipes rolling.
