February is "Bake for Family Fun Month"

February 03, 2011

There is something about a snow day that makes me think of baking.  I immediately start thinking of the pantry, and what’s inside that could be thrown together to create something mouthwateringly delicious.  I become so desperate that I’ve been known to dash to the grocery store in weather no one else would brave for that crucial missing ingredient. 

Now, I don’t have to wait for a snow day- February is "Bake for Family Fun Month".  So,  gather up the family, preheat the oven, and don’t forget to lick the beaters!  Looking for some new, yummy recipes?  Find one in one of the following books available at your library:
