Early in July, Offspring3 was pet sitting for a neighbor. The family asked me to pick up their Community Farm Share for that week (Offspring3 not licensed yet). We stopped on the way to Offspring3’s job on a Thursday afternoon, and met the nicest couple working the pickup booth. They had pretzel bread from a local bakery, and I commented that it looked sad (it was in plastic, so the condensation melted the salt). I told them I had a great recipe, and the woman asked me to share.
So, the next Thursday rolled around, and I made Brezen Semmel, printed the recipe, and we stopped by the pickup booth again with rolls and the printed recipe. I think the couple was a little surprised that I actually remembered my promise and followed through.
This past week, the lovely woman and I got together (not at the pickup booth!), and she surprised me with BEAUTIFUL AND DELICIOUS sunflower cupcakes! Holy Guacamole!
I cannot tell a lie…they are all gone, and I won the consumption race. 😉
Turns out, my new friend makes cakes as a hobby. Check out her work!
Thanks so much, Kristen!

I recognize that Lenox china pattern! Very mid eighties. I have a 12 place settings if you ever need to borrow for an event.

Tammy, we have had the “we are really similar” discussion before! I, too, have 12 place settings, if you ever need to borrow!
