Can you believe it’s November? Â Weren’t we just wearing flip flops and shorts, enjoying the long days of summer and savoring the occasional ice cream cone?
Of course, each new season has its own endearing qualities. Â Darkness at 5:00 is offset (ok…somewhat offset) by the gorgeous colors of fall, the beauty of the first snowfall, and the anticipation of the holidays. And the holidays are synonymous with baking, right?

My mother’s birthday is coming up so I’ll make her a Raspberry Cake.
Would love to have this!
I love to cook and bake. This would sure make it more enjoyable. Happy Holidays/
The first thing I would make would be homemade marshmallows! I’ve always wanted to make them, but they say that having a stand mixer is absolutely required. I would love to be able to give homemade marshmallows as Christmas gifts this year!
And I’d want to be on your list!
I’d remake your wonderful Apple Cake recipe, and do it justice this time! 🙂
I have wanted a Kitchenaide all my life and have never been in the position to acquire one and not sure what my first baking project would be but at this time of year probably “pajinks” a homemade bread dough made with fresh pumpkin and served up with homemade vegetable soup in honor of my mother and father who are no longer with us. Thank youl
