Yikes I’ve really been slacking I guess because there’s only one more post queued up when normally I would have at least 5.  Part of that was being sick for three weeks but there’s no good excuse. It’s not even hot in these parts yet so cooking and baking aren’t a hassle yet but as we drift towards the summer I’d better get all my cooking done before the heat hits and looking at the stove makes me cry.
