Baking

Making goodies for my dance can be a joy if I have time.
I just read "Confections of a Closet Master Baker" by Gesine Bullock-Prado, mostly about her family, the German opera singer mother and baker grandmother, and her movie star sister and having to leave LA for being too phony.
I didn't get the joke until she detailed possible names for her pastry shop in Montpelier, Vermont - "Master Baker! Beat it and Eat it" I tend to ignore book titles.
I made her extremely buttery fruit tart for the oldest boy (Sloane doesn't get sweets yet)
Now it's tiny almond chocolate macaroons rolled in sugar and frozen before baking?!
Nice cool weather for baking today.
