How does a civic-minded, conscientious girl merge her love of baking with her appreciation of everyday folks? Enter Single Girl Cookies, one super cool girl’s quest to pay it forward ever so sweetly! Over the past few years, Renee Heitmann has been surprising local businesses in her beloved adopted neighborhood of Astoria, Queens with her secret family cookie recipes. A professional singer and music teacher by day, Renee’s mission is all about bringing yummy happiness to her neighbors and chronicling it on Twitter and a blog. The “Single” of Single Girl Cookies symbolizes the idea that positive change can happen by a single action and a single soul. I say – Bravo, Renee!
