Kfreshwater: I have the same problem in a family of 3, one of whom is a diet-conscious teen girl...I send many baked goods in to my husband's office mates, which I suspect has made him impervious to layoffs...I bake big-batch stuff Saturday night so I can offload some to my church's coffee hour Sunday morning...I repay neighbors for favors (like raking up our leaves or shoveling snow, which we always procrastinate)...and there is always the option of giving goodies to a local senior center or soup kitchen where the usual chow is bland and institutional. They will worship you as a goddess.
As for this blog...AMAZING...the combo of the printable recipe click-thru and the step-by-step with photos...I may never do anything else but bake for the rest of my life. We're hosting coffee hour this Sunday and the whoopie pies will be rolled out there--thanks to the person who shared their refrigeration experience, now I know to make them the night before and no sooner!
It's a movement! Shower the people in your world with baked goods! You'll be the hero (or the goddess?) of the neighborhood! Happy Baking! Irene @ KAF
