I actually enjoy cooking. After my New York trip I came home and baked cupcakes for the people in my section of the newsroom, just to see if I could make them better than the ones at The Cupcake Cafe or the Magnolia Bakery......sure enough I could. My homemade cherry chip frosting was magnificent! Too bad I never write things down.

But while we were in Pennsylvania we had some really good home-cooking and I was inspired again to make my family food while they're all still at home....or maybe I just missed my family.
