Nice! all deliciousness. Have you always liked baking?

Opie sounds like a silly boy for sure! Haha
I really like that picture, too. Sometimes, we need something up to remind us like mental notes.... "the dishes will be there tomorrow".

Yes I have, I made all the kids birthday cakes growing up and I made some for baby showers and military promotions for people DH worked with. I made cupcakes and tons of goodies for school parties as well. Before we got married I had never really cooked anything so just started trying things. Some turned out great and others not so much. Everyone is still alive, so I must have learned okay !!

glad the family survived! I didn't know how to cook anything until 5 years ago. I have always loved the idea of cooking/baking but, all the steps seem so intimidating.
Did you ever think about doing a business or just for fun, family & friends?

Don't let her kid you. She's an exceptional baker and awesome cook. Up until a few years ago, she did all of the baking, candy making, and anything sweet. She makes the best meatloaf I've ever tasted. She's also invented a number of awesome recipes. Oh, and she's the best Sous-chef ever... Okay, I might be just a little biased.

So am I I never thought about a business, I just enjoy it and as crazy as it sounds, for me its somewhat therapeutic.

"just a little?" sometimes we need someone else to give the well-deserved credit that we dont give ourselves so, I trust your judgement

It doesn't sound crazy at all! Everyone has their "thing". At least with food, you can eat it share with others, and DH approves.

So the Princess arose a bit ago and came into the computer room and greeted me with, "I'm in a Cracker Barrel sort of mood." I immediately think that she must have slipped her gears and say, "Are you serious?" She shakes her head, looks at me askance like I'm a dummy, and says "No, it's Sunday. Are you going to make pancakes." That I could/did do. Sunday morning at Cracker Barrel used to be our go to move, and pancakes the go to meal.

I’m not sure if I’ve had a scone but I looooooovvveeee brownies and meatloaf.
