photographic evidence that I have in fact baked something.

Happy New Years from your favorite spiteful baker! This year I hope to be better about updating my blog more often, and also losing thirty pounds. How those things will effect each other will remain to be seen. For now, enjoy a few pictures of things I made toward the end of the year. Due to my baking fatigue from Spite's cake, I didn't make that much.. but a few things.

Thanksgiving pies: mincemeat, papa J's favorite and the best apple pie i have ever made ever.

Sweet potato pie, my first ever. I'm going to say it only came out only okay, since it was never finished and eventually molded.

Yet another attempt at making yeast breads. Although these did not rise well, they had a nice crumb and flavor. Since this attempt I have had a tutorial with Mama J on proper bread making techniques.

That is not all I have made, but perhaps all I have photographed. I have taken a keen interest in bread puddings and other custard dishes as well as savory and bread baking. I hope to bring more interesting tales from my kitchen to you in the coming year.

Love and best wishes for all good things in this new year,

Lauren
