Oh hey, I remember you. Over the last few months I’ve attempted to put together a post several times, but alas they were not meant to be. From the Norwalk that ruined my Holiday baking plans, to the apartment flood that drowned my lap top, it’s been a rough couple of months for baked goods. … Continue reading »

Apologies for the terrible picture, I had no intention of ever showing this to the public… My roommate and I dubbed … Continue reading »
