Baking

I love baking!  When I think of all my hobbies, this is the one thing I could do the longest without getting tired of it.  And if you include photographing the food and eating it after, then you really can't beat it.  Period.

I just finished making muffins with fresh strawberries and raspberry jam in them.  I could have eaten the whole batch.  Ethan said he could have eaten 50.  They seemed more like cupcakes.  And they didn't even need frosting. 

Speaking of cupcakes, I am hoping to make some chocolate ones soon, with peanut butter cookie dough in them.  Yes, you heard that right.

I currently have a list so long of recipes I want to try that I wonder if I'll ever get to all of them.

Ginger Shortbread Lemon Bars.  And Rootbeer Cake.  Peanut butter Banana Bread.  And Meyer Lemon Blueberry Cake.  And deep dish pie.  How about Sweet Potato Zuchinni Bread?

Most of these come from my two favorite food blogs:

I'm heading to my treadmill.
