I used to bake a lot, (I used to cook a lot too) but between our busy schedules, all the activities, and my shift of interests (social media lol) I just don’t ever seem to find the time anymore.
When Collective Bias asked for participants to bake with the kids and give the baked good to someone in need I jumped at the chance. Not only could I take a break and share my love of baking with my boys but I would also be brightening a friend’s day too. We made peanut butter cookies that... Posts Tagged 'recipe'
