Married to a rock star scientist (chemist by day, guitarist by night) and we have one shining star of a little boy. I love to bake! And I hate cooking the same things twice. There are far too many recipes to repeat the same thing every few weeks. Chocolate creme brulee, creating a recipe for an chocolate malt ice cream cake Shepard's Pie - I'd never even eaten it before and I decided to pretty much create my own recipe with beer, sorghum [in lieu of molasses] and parsnips. Even the mashed potatoes turned out wonky.
