Proud Baker

Along with the vintage kitchen tools, old photographs, and random cake-related ephemera that I have collected over the years, I have a small number of badges...


...including this one from the Girl Scouts of Maine.



I can already see myself as an old woman, standing (hopefully) for the millionth time over Stella, my Kitchen Aid, and wearing an old cotton apron onto which I've stitched these suckers amongst the stains and rips. I may not have made it long in the Girl Scouts, but I'll always proudly be a Baker.
