petitepedal ★ Posted August 31, 2017 Share #1 Posted August 31, 2017 I use to bake..cookies, cakes and pies...at least a few times a year..but no need to bake for one...But I gotta make these bars for the memorial service tomorrow night..and since my pole didn't work I opted for a cake like lemon bar...However I decided to spring for new baking soda and powder....and flour....I also copied a pumpkin snickerdoodle recipe..won't make them this weekend but...maybe for Sept 28 for National Poetry Day...some residents plan to celebrate Like any skill use it or lose it....I am gonna try to bake a bit more...either bring it to work or church... Not tons of baking...but maybe once a month or every 2 months...just to keep some kind of skill going... Getting a late start because a resident who moved out (most do not MOVE out)..was at the building today and giving me heck for not coming to their Wednesday Night Happy hour (happy hour wine was $4.41)...I went once back in December...so I stopped tonight...Now I have to bake...just giving the butter a chance to thaw a bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smudge ★ Posted August 31, 2017 Share #2 Posted August 31, 2017 If you haven't baked in a while, pretty good idea to buy new stuff. Baking once in a while is a good thing. Treats in moderation are a very good thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah...but cookie recipes usually make 3 to 5 dozen....which is more than a treat now and then.... It is nice to share 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longjohn ★ Posted August 31, 2017 Share #4 Posted August 31, 2017 I ran a Café at church on Sunday mornings. Every Saturday night I baked. I always baked coffee cake and muffins, sometimes I baked biscotti. At times if I was feeling experimental I would make carrot cake or something like that. I did that for probably ten years or so. When we moved to the Ohio campus of our church they had it covered so I quit baking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur ★ Posted August 31, 2017 Share #5 Posted August 31, 2017 I am a little concerned that you are baking alone. Is that safe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
