Marlene, The Sourdough Cookie Lady

Meet The Baker

Hey there! I’m Marlene, The Sourdough Cookie Lady


My journey is one for the (cook)books. I started as a natural homemaking blogger before falling in love with sourdough baking about five years ago. I later opened a micro-bakery in my community, where I became known as “the cookie lady” for my customer-favorite sourdough cookies.

Today, I’m the blogger behind Every Purpose Home and the baker behind The Sourdough Cookie Lady. Every recipe I share is one I’ve personally developed and tested in my regular home kitchen. My mission is to share tried-and-true favorites while creating new and unique sourdough cookie flavors for every occasion imaginable!

Find your next go-to sourdough dessert, and gather a little homemaking inspiration while you’re here. Choose a flavor, and let’s get baking!
