Baking

I am going to be baking like crazy in the next few days. I am making bread and tons of cookies to send to family and friends. I made a pie and put it in the pie for later use. I also made fudge, i know seems like alot but when you send things out nothing is really left for yourselves.

New News

So I have done a lot of bread baking lately, but have been forgetting to take photos. On a sweeter note I got accepted into the Johnson and Wales continuing Education program, couldn't be happier. Wanted this since I was about 10 years old

Frustration

Maybe I am having a baking block or maybe I just need to take a break for a bit, but it seems the last couple things I have attempted have turned out completely wrong. What's a girl to do? Mabye it's the weather or all the other distractions in my life. BUt I made cinnimon raisin bread today and my dough never rose. I didn't want to just throw it out, so I finished it and it is so dense and thick, I am not a happy baker.

Strawberry Pie


Picked fresh berries from the farm, made this beautiful pie. Until I cut into it, it was very soupy. Not happy with it, tasted so yummy though. I think I should have cooked the berries longer with the cornstarch mixture.

Feeling Inspired

I just swung by the library and picked up Martha Stewarts cupcake book, I can't wait to make some of them, they look really yummy. Although I am not the biggest fan of her she does make some yummy desserts.

Chocolate Ganache Cake

Birthday Cake


This was my first go around with fondant

Away we go


Yesterday I made an amazing swedish rye bread and a banana toffee cream pie. I made homemade whipped cream, which could have used more sugar. I also wish the toffee was more crunchy and less sticky.
