Baking and Writing, Writing and Baking!

Progress report: I had a great lunch meeting with a good writing friend M.M. (good friend, and good writer!), and we're supporting each other with our writing projects. We set goals and dates to meet again, which is both exciting and inspiring! We'll meet again August 1st to report on our progress and to set new goals. It's great to have support like this as I dig in to my cookbook project!

Meanwhile, the baking continues. This post is short and very, very sweet with four cakes I baked this past weekend, all for special people celebrating special occasions! Photos follow!

Hope you enjoy - no more cakes for a few weeks (she says gratefully!). I LOVE baking cakes for my friends and family, but being so busy with the full-time job and other baking projects, I welcome a short reprieve before the next cake is scheduled for July 12th (right, AP?!). Anyway…all work and no play, you know… :)

PS - please think about sharing YOUR favorite family recipe and, even more, the story behind it for consideration for my cookbook project!  Contact me with your story and recipe at adirondackbaker@gmail.com!
