The Little Threads

There's something pretty great about catching up with friends over baked goods. Even better, baking together. The other day my friend and I ambitiously set out to bake 5 different things. Needless to say it stopped at 3. Within the span of three to four hours we had made 2 apple pies, a mountain high of oatmeal raisin cookies and baked spaghetti (that was dinner).

Recipes I recommend you try:

Smitten Kitchen's Raspberry Buttermilk Cake - Super simple to make. It's a good pick-me-up tea cake. Only thing is I used less sugar just cause I don't have a particularly sweet tooth.

Martha Stewart's Cream Cheese Pound Cake  - This cake hits the spot for me. Again not too complicated to make, and its the perfect balance between sweetness and tang (from the cream cheese). Try them out and let me know what you think. :)

What're some of your favourite things to bake?
