Joy The Baker

If you haven't already noticed, I have a thing for cupcakes. 

                                                                                     

 And I stay up all night reading blogs.

 As a result, I am always crabby the following day.

Therefore, tonight I have a bedtime of eleven o clock. Seem pathetic? I don’t mind, it should do me some good. 

So the point of all that being I have to write quickly. Ignore incomplete sentences, misspelled words… I think you got it.

Joy lives in Las Angeles, and is a baker. She is a stranger to me, but I am absolutely smitten with her blog, which seems to reveal much of her personality. I am obsessed with her writing style, photographs and of course, I am head over heels in love with her food. I have barely even begun attempting her recipes for I’d rather not butcher them. But even the pictures are so enticing and delicious I want to print and gobble them all up. So the temptation is too great. Give me a few extra hours and I will massacre the kitchen and a perfect pie.

Here is a list of things that I wish for.

        1.  I wish I were a better cook/baker.

        2.   I wish Joy would teach and befriend me.

        3. I wish the kitchen cleaned itself.

      Okay, I am getting nowhere here and simply rambling on.

I need to share my last idea though, before I shut off my lamp and lie in bed only to stare at the unseen ceiling. I am making a June 15^th resolution. At least once a week, for the rest of the summer, I will bake a delicious dessert from Joy the Baker’s blog. Secondly, I will cook a healthy meal, at least once a week as well, found on my other favorite blogs. Sound like a plan? It sounds simple and fairly effortless. I definitely wouldn’t say that I’m being too ambitious but still I hope I can manage.

Now, to my three, occasional readers.  

I would kill to have taken these photos, but unfortunately none of them are mine. 

They were taken by Joy the Baker, of course, and so all credit goes to her. What an inspiration. 

I am purchasing a new macro lens for my camera. 

Uncontainable anticipation. Feel free to join in on the excitement. 

Last Note. I promise. Look at these, don't they just look positively yummy? And as hard as this is to believe, they taste even better than they appear. Absurd? I know. 

I'm a little late. But finally off to count sheep.
