Lindy Swain is one of four owners of the beloved Long Beach institution Dylan's Cottage Bakery. She and her husband Mark teamed up with Jeff and Casey Harrell to buy the bakery last year when the former owners decided to close in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. They made a few changes and updates to the business, and the results have been phenomenal! It became Dylan's Cottage Bakery in honor of Dylan Jude Harrell, Lindy's niece, who passed away in 2020 from a rare brain cancer called Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG). Lindy recounts the sometimes painful memories of her first few years living on the Long Beach peninsula, and speaks on the importance of strong community and family bonds. We talk about potty training, mushrooms, the afterlife, and how much we love Costco, and much more! Lindy was a pleasure to have in the studio and I really admire her courage for talking about something so sensitive and personal.
Please enjoy!
