I'm not sure what it is about baking, but there is something insanely soothing buried somewhere between the mixing and the frosting that I find irresistible. I know that there are hundreds of blogs out there dedicated to all things culinary and by comparison, my little red ladies are wildly mediocre, but standing in my kitchen after being on the road for months and actually turning on my oven to produce something sweet... well, it just makes me happy.
