@112 fitmnttaifliitpnrttt Thursday, May 12, 2016 A11 West Alabama Andi Tuberville made a birthday cake for one of her four children. That was eight years ago. . From that experience came skill.‘ ‘c‘oupred'w‘ih‘ more Bak- ing and more experimenting with recipes, last year that turned into ambition. Last June, she opened The Canebakery. Inside the building on West Jackson street, across the canal and around the sharp curve, the aroma is deliciously fresh baked goods from croissants to cookies to cakes to stuff that is unusual. Decorating that birthday cake eight years ago led her into baking some other good- ies, different recipes for differ- ent cookies, pastries, cakes, and anything bake-able. Having the knowledge of baking and the curiosity of try- ing new recipes, has led the lady of multi-talents to a thriv— ing business that people drive to patronize. The lady does sing, she acts with the Canebrake Players, she sews, she creates, she paints, she used to run. Now all that is secondary to softball, baseball, home, and cooking. Whispered and perhaps meant to not be heard, “I’ve gained 15 pounds since I opened the bakery.” Her husband Shane Tuberville has not complained, though. They have four children: Ben 11, Bryant 9, Lily 7, and Sidda 6. The family are mem- bers of the Demopolis United Methodist Church. Andi grew up attending the Demopolis Baptist Church. ©f©$§f©©©7§ [7?

Andi Tuberville smiles as she talks about her Canebakery on West Jackson Street in Demopolis Andi brings Conebokery Mul’ri—iollen’red lady cooks gourmet goodies They moved into a new home a couple of weeks ago and Andi, the artist but not a house painter, painted the front door but it didn’t suit her, so she repainted it again. It took four coats for each color change. The dynamic lady recently performed as Shelby in Steel Magnolias. In the story, Shelby dies of diabetic complications, so Andi was retired to backstage for the remainder of the play. “I looked out at the audi- ence and everybody was cry- ing.” Her brown eyes glistened as she talked about the funny story that had the tragic ending for her role. But she has performed many times. Andi got her first role when she was a senior in high school and auditioned for Bye- Bye Birdie. She loves the theater so dearly that her boys, she said, want to become members of the Canebrake Players. As she sits and talks, her bakery staff remains attentive to customers and business. Bobby Jackson makes cook- ies. Clesanah Barlow cooks. Courtnie Beverly sells, Cooper Boggs comes in every afternoon after school and washes dishes and takes out the garbage. The staff serves the cus- tomers professionally even when Andi is off taking her children to baseball or softball games. Her hobbies are simple: any- thing children related. “I used to do a lot of things Andi and Shane just moved into this home — singing, art, creating, run- ning . . . now I only have time to cook.” Andi says she is definitely a morning person, but in the Spring and in the Fall, she loves to sit outside in the evenings. Her outlook on life is to expand her business and to enjoy her family. Her. family Demopolis in 1981. came to Her parents helped her paint three bedrooms in the home into which she recently moved.
