I enjoy baking, I just don't do a lot of it. By the time the rest of the kitchen stuff is done, there is usually something else calling me. Occassionaly Leah will get the hankering for something and I'll bake. We used to make cakes for sale but we've dropped that, the return just wasn't worth the effort.
This past few days saw a First Aid Instructors course being held at the House and I supplied coffee and desserts for them. The baking list... Apple Pie, White Chocolate/Cranberry Scones, Blueberry Pie, Chocolate Velvet Cake with white chocolate sauce and field berry sauce, Blueberry cheese cake (I can't believe I forgot an ingredient. Luckily it was still delicious), Chocolate Rasberry Lava Cake (this was cheating it's a mix, but I have an excuse), Chocolate cake with rasberry filling and Mint icing, and Upside Down Pineapple cake. In the midst of it all we also made a three tiered wedding cake, starting Friday night by making about 350 drop flowers (although we only used a small fraction of them), and finishing just before the wedding Sunday at 3:00pm.
So I think I'm baked out for awhile, besides there is plenty left over. Luckily I take all the calories out of my baking.
Update for Nuthatch
Here's a photo, sorry it's all I took.
