I am starting new in the new year....I will not say that this is a resolution because they often fail. My goal here is to document my baking adventures for my friends and family.
I am happy to say that 2009 was an amazing year. We have two new additions in the family, my nephews Orson and Xander. They are precious babies and cannot wait for them to enjoy some of the goodies I create.
I have also done quite a bit of baking over the past year. I have tackled some new delicious recipes and look forward to sharing them here.
I have to say that inspiration has been coursing through my veins since seeing
Julie and Julia (Reine de Saba cake above).
I am reading Julia's
My Life in France ...quite the enjoyable read. I also plan to give some recommendations on some things I am reading. I just purchased the books
My Bread, by Jim Lahey, and
The Craft of Baking, by Karen DeMasco.
I am looking forward to the new year and hope you will join me for the fun to come!!
