Me too!
I’m reading an ebook from my library (had to wait on hold for a while): Mark Twain by Ron Chernow. He couldn’t stand going to school so avoided it but read adventure books. He noticed how churches used the bible to justify slavery … from an early age he observed the cruelty and was outraged by it.

Nice to have kids that buy you baking books. Just received BUNS by Louise Hurst. Its not a huge book, 159 pages. Has 5 master recipes for dough and the rest is filled with different fillings. Dough and filling is made to be baked tomorrow.

Thank you for this. Given Caitlin’s comment, I went for it.
Jeez, I’d buy any cookbook for $1.99 – I think it’s just a reflex. If it’s heart shaped, I’ll pay double 
.
His Venetian Cornmeal and Currant Cookies look intriguing.

Stef and pavlova have both reported good results with some recipes on the baking threads, and there are many intriguing-sounding recipes.

Yes I 'm pleased with the book. Ive baked the Brazilian carrot cake which is done in a blender and my son recently attended a potluck and also made it. It must be good if he remembered it

Saving the Seasons is great. You should get it. I went to a book signing/demo a while back and learned a ton.
