If I Knew You Were Coming I'd Have Baked A Cake

I don't understand baking.

You take all these wonderful ingredients - granulated sugar, brown sugar; whole eggs, egg yolks for a richer batter and whites for meringue; whipping cream; sweetened, condensed milk; butter; dried and fresh fruit, even vegetables like grated carrot and zucchini; walnuts and pecans; vanilla and other pure extracts; bittersweet chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, peanut butter, and butterscotch morsels; and cinnamon and other exotic spices - then you ruin it by dumping in cup after cup of dry, pasty, mealy, bleached or unbleached flour. You might as well add a bucket of plaster dust and be done with it.

Just give me a spoon and I'm good to go.

  1. Silly boy! Made right, the flour creates a cohesive bond of the luscious flavors within.

    . . . now back to reality . . .
