Baking day something…pandemic day one million

When we started this little adventure I thought I would always stay on top of it. I thought for sure we would bake, take photos, and blog. Just like that. Turns out life is a bit more messy then my brain…which is a terrifying thought! I would like to think there will be a time I will be able to keep up with all this fun, but the truth is that we’ve been having too much fun/heartbreak/exhaustion/general living/schooling/ this never ending pandemic that keeps throwing a wrench in random things, and the keeping up has fallen to the wayside. (But seriously, this pandemic right?!?!) I hope you’ll all stick around anyway to see what we get up to. I TRY to keep up with Instagram and Facebook a bit more so you can always check there.

Since the last post we’ve been busy. We still bake weekly at least, and we still make HUGE messes in the kitchen! We also have been working hard to get through this years school work. It’s been feeling like a bit of a drag for all of us lately which has found us escaping outside…where we don’t have a kitchen. I’ve also been making more of an effort to put down the technology and focus on the process with the kids, which makes keeping up with all of you and our kitchen happenings a bit of a problem. Balance, I’m searching for balance. I know I’ll get there, so don’t go anywhere.

Meanwhile, let me fill you in! Some of our favorite latest baking activities have been donuts, all the muffins (and we will have a couple original recipes to share with you soon!!), granola bars (also an original recipe coming), and we tried our hands at choux pastry, which I must say we CRUSHED!

All this to say, in my long winded way, please stick with us. We love having you along for the ride and we love sharing our kitchen fun with you.

Happy baking friends! Feel free to let us know what you’ve been up to in the kitchen and share if there are any recipes you think we should try!
