I love baking. I love to eat baked goods. Seems like a perfect combination, right? Well, my waist (because every extra ounce gained goes to my waist first and every ounce lost comes off my waist last) doesn’t really appreciate this. Between my weight loss goals and my husband’s pre-diabetic condition, the baked goods have been taking a back burner. But I still read baking blogs and boy, am I tempted.
Here’s what’s on my to-be-baked list:
Red Velvet Cake (my favorite)
Brownie Mosaic Cheesecake (possibly my birthday cake this year)
Chocolate Peanut Butter Brownies
So my game plan now is to find events to bake these things and take them to so that we won’t eat them all. I don’t really have my usual round of cook-outs, but there’s at least one potluck coming up that’s getting something from this list.
Tomorrow I’m making a Black Forest Trifle. That’s what Tom has requested for his birthday and even though no one else will eat it, that’s what I’m making him. Actually, he wants a Black Forest Cake, but I told him this would be lighter and he agreed that was a better plan.
