Want a New Cake Pan? [UPDATED]

Friday, January 27, 2012

As you know, this past Wednesday was Bakingdom’s 2nd birthday. I chose to take the day for myself, be lazy, and eat lots of sugary joy. I didn’t make a crazy elaborate cake. I didn’t even make a scratch cake…box mix all the way, baby. But I still made some sweet, girly, happy little cakes ...

Mini Chocolate Caramel Cheesecakes

Thursday, January 19, 2012

Do you guys watch any of those ghost story shows? Like maybe “Ghost Hunters” or “Ghost Adventures” or “Paranormal State?” I don’t. I used to watch them all the time, and they really freaked me out. I was always on the edge of my seat, convinced that at any second, some otherworldly visage would float ...

At the risk of sounding completely broken in the brain, I have to ask, do you guys ever get distracted by things that sparkle? I know, I sound like a three year old right now.

I’m baa-aaaack. I know, finally, right? Sorry, I was MIA, friends, but seriously, I thought I was dying of the zombie plague or something. I did have a mysterious scratch on my pinky for several days. At first, I thought it was the infection point. Turns out it was just a scratch and nothing more, ...
