From aspiration to obsession

Posted by Rebecca in In the kitchen.

This Bakerella business is getting the best of me.

I haven’t thought about anything else since stumbling across this blog. And, that’s saying a lot, because I had a huge event this week.

But, as I was deviling deeper into her site, I wound up at Cakespy, and then Tartelette and then Cupcake Bakeshop, and then Cannelle et Vanille…and somewhere in there, I found a little line of text in which one baker/blogger explained that she started because there was something missing from her life, and that thing was baking.

Hmmm, a cupcake-shaped hole that can only be filled by batch after batch of batter. Interesting.

And speaking of culinary creations…

Ava has developed a taste for an old family recipe—peanut butter and pickle sandwiches. She makes them herself using dill pickle relish.

Her father made her a peanut butter and SUGAR sandwich last week, so I think this is a step in the right direction.
