If you're wondering why I haven't posted lately. It's because when I'm not tending to my little one, I have been glued to my laptop and not my mixer. What is she talking about you are probably wondering? I did it, I joined. In the words of a friend of mine, "Welcome to the dark side". That's right, you guessed it, pinterest.
