OK, if Corto can admit it, so can I. I, too, am a male baker. Whew! I feel so much better.
Today was Baklava Day. Baked up a big ol’ pan of baklava and even used the scraps (my pans are too narrow for the phyllo dough) to make rolled baklava.
So, in the past year I’ve made a bunch of baklava, a pumpkin cheesecake, a chocolate cheesecake, and various brownies and cookies. Next up: black forest cake. Mmmm, I love that stuff.
Of course, being not quite the glutton I once was, the majority of the baklava is going to work to feed the ungrateful ones I must spend many of my waking hours with.
