Long time no see! The end of January was a bit of a blur – unexpected travel followed almost immediately by helping loveymom through surgery and post-op care, and then a sick kitty. Things are starting to fall back into a routine, so February should be more consistent. We’re doing brownies and bars this month, as I’ve got a major chocolate craving at the moment. Hope you enjoy!

January – Quick breads and muffins
January 3, 2010There’s a lot going on in January, so quick breads and muffins seem like they’ll be the perfect theme. And as the mrs said, “well, they’re…..quick.” Right, couldn’t have said it better myself. Anyway, keep checking in, this month should be a fast and furious flurry of posts!
What is this all about?
December 27, 2009I’m a hobbyist baker who gets rave reviews on my output – “you should do more with your baking! you have skills!” – so here I am, blogging as I experiment. We’ll see if more than 3 people read along. One reason for this project is to encourage me to bake more. Currently I’ll go through phases where I don’t bake for weeks on end, followed immediately by a weekend where I just MUST bake at least 700 things. I’m hoping this will even it out a bit.
Due to a touch of (undiagnosed, unmedicated, but oh-so-there) ADD, I am sometimes paralyzed with all the different choices of what to make next. To that end, I’m going to attempt a different category each month, to help direct my efforts. Of course random things might still pop up, but I’ll try to keep to the month’s theme as much as possible. As time progresses I’ll be working on developing more of my own recipes, but to start it will mostly be one of the zillion recipes in my ‘to try’ file. Anything used that isn’t my own will be appropriately recognized.
Anyway, thanks for popping in, hope you enjoy. If you see any glaring mistakes or stupidity, please feel free to (gently) let me know.
