Baking Bliss

I post about baking a good bit because, well,  I love to bake. And in the last few months my love of baking has really increased because of one little person:

Lucy is finally at the age where she can really "help" me bake, and so now I hardly need an excuse to whip up some muffins or cookies or scones. There's nothing quite like listening to giggles of glee from a small child as the flour mixes in with the egg, or watching her brow furrow in concentration as she dumps a teaspoon of salt into the bowl. 

And of course it's messy. Which is half the glory.
