This is a blog of items I have baked, including recipes from the many cookbooks I own, my own created recipes, and recipes from other sources. I will write about what I have made and post a picture along with it! During stretches when I go without baking, I will write a brief article about some aspect of cooking, baking, ingredients, or preparation techniques.

Pasta!
Well, did you ever wonder just how many different types of pasta there are? Here is a list, and I'm sure it is far from complete. There are over 500 types, but I am just listing the ones I can remember from the top of my head. Most pastas I have never even heard of! Notice how the majority of pastas end in -i or -e, sounding like eeeeeee.
