Baking through the Martha Stewart app
Oh, hi. Did you forget that I had a cookie blog? So did I. I can’t believe it’s been 4 months since I baked cookies and posted a blog – ew!
Anyway, it’s my favorite time of year. Although these look Christmasy instead of Halloweeny, they’ve got cinnamon and that’s close enough.
I thought these would be an easy way to get back into the groove of baking. I mean, there were only 7 ingredients and one of them was water. Continue reading

After last week’s disaster, I desperately needed something to go well. My reputation is on the line! I’ve had pretty good success with brownies, so I chose another.

My new friend Genoa went back and read every single blog I’ve written. When she asked if she could help me bake, the answer was simple: no.
