Welcome!

Welcome to my blog.  I love to bake, however I am an armature.  I have begun this blog to help me push my baking and cooking talents by posting my creations.  Step 1. I have begun to organize my current recipe collection.  My recipes were all shoved into a cupboard in our kitchen.  They are on full sheets of paper, clipped from magazines, hand written on index cards and many other forms.  Before I begin to expand and develop my recipes they need to be organized.  Good thing I am an archivist.  Yes I know I could type them all up on the computer and organize the data efficiently so I could cross reference ingredients, however I am old fashioned.  I am hand writing them and putting them in a recipe box.  This will take a while but in the mean time I will be joining the Daring Bakers so that I am sure to make more recipes every month.  I am looking forward to becoming a better baker and maybe in time I will make a permanent career change...you never know where life and the ingredients may take you.
