Summertime,
and the living is not always easy. I have been everywhere but by the oven,
The culmination of personal tragedies and more than a few disappointments, not to mention an earthquake and a hurricane all in one week (thankfully mild in my part of the world), have left me, well, sleepy in brain, body, and heart.

Dreamy Cake Video

"There is something beautiful about the baking process. The way flour feels in your hands or the sound of eggs cracking on the edge of a bowl. Baking is a gathering of interesting materials, a mixed medium art piece of sorts, that ends in a cake instead of a canvas."

Pretty as a Picture
The March 1950 issue of McCall's magazine was the first major women's magazine to feature a photograph of food on the cover. This is the tattered copy I snagged when I learned that the food in question was a cake . . .
