our nifty vermont kitchen has a few pull-out drawers,
this one has a bunch of baking supplies tucked in.
batman is the holiday baker around here,
having been imprinted at an early age by his
grandma peggy and his mom.
i'm more into the tea breads.
he is full throttle sugar cookies, pecan puffs,
gingerbread people (but you must ask gretta about
the lederhosen boys!), english toffee and
cinnamon squares.
today i listened to a podcast of
vermont edition that was originally broadcast
on friday, hosted by jane lindholm.
she interviewed "celebrity chef" gesine bullock-prado
about her new book, fantastical cakes.
you can listen to the interview here.
let me just say that
gesine takes her cake baking very seriously.
fyi, gesine is a vermonter and the sister of actress sandra bullock.
(i was reminded of my "meet up" with vicki g. at king arthur
a while back. vicki was lucky enough to attend a "meet and greet"
with gesine when vicki was taking a few classes
at the king arthur baking school in norwich.)
i've got granola and orange cranberry bread
on my baking list for this week.
do you have any holiday baking in mind dear readers?

I do! Probably both tea breads and cookies, including a new recipe for a gluten-free cookie whose ingredients include a potato. But first, I'll be finishing some secret sewing.
