The Baking Housewife

Confession: I have a sweet tooth. Or is it sweet TEETH? Surely there is more than one sweet tooth in that big mouth of mine.

I’d gladly eat only vegetables all day, every day if that meant I could have a big slice of cake every night.

I love to eat sweet treats, but I actually enjoy baking them even more. It’s all about the process: choosing a recipe, shopping for ingredients, measuring them out, planning, mixing, spreading…. and best of all, enjoying the aromas wafting from the oven.

This is Ebony, my trusty side kick.

Together Ebony and I have made some delcious treats,

and some horrible messes,

with tragic results.

We can’t be perfect all the time, right?

I’m not accomplished (or brave) enough to create my own recipes, but thanks to the internet and the millions of baking blogs out there, it’s easy to find something delicious to bake, just with the click of a mouse.

Here are some of my favorites:
