My Santa went to the famous used book store Powell's for my cookbooks. I am so excited to make all these tasty things! I got Betty Crocker's Baking Basics, Good Housekeeping Bake It!, The Best Quick Breads, and The Portlandia Cook Book. There are going to be so many tasty things in my future. I'm a teacher, and my summer break just started today, so I know what my summer project is going to be. My friends are going to love/hate me.

I'm going to rephrase a quote from the Portland postcard I was given: "Every minute you're not baking is a minute you're not baking."

Thanks Portland Santa! <3
