I admittedly am not much of a baker. I think partly its because I don't eat a lot of sweets myself and I find the work of making them is just...work! I own a kitchenaid mixer which is AWESOME to own but the first 2 places we lived have been short on counter space and the cupboards haven't been tall enough for it to fit underneath them (I have the professional kind) . So for now, I've loaned it out to my mom for awhile for her to use while I can't. But lately, I've been getting the baking bug. I found a place on my counter for it to stay and be used. I know Adam would LOVE it if I baked more since he has a sweet tooth and his mom is a big baker. We'll see how this goes...
