Bake Day Beth

Cassie58

our kitchen smiles when 

Beth has a blitz on baking 

whether it’s bread 

biscuits or cakes 

or some other experiment 

in the making 

 

an aroma permeates 

that’s positively scrumptious 

while the finished product 

has us drooling and asking 

for more 

 

be sure not to notice 

the chaos left in her wake 

for goodness sake 

comes later in the day 

with clearing 

 

is there a single utensil

left untouched 

or a bowl or pan clean 

from ingredients  of 

left over cooking 

 

well is there 🙂

    That makes me want to be invited over! No one really bakes anymore and store bought goodies are too sweet, ‘too preserved,’ and too expensive…. Enjoy the relish goodies and the family camaraderie!

      So right arqios, not enough home baking these days, too much bought in supermarkets. Messy Beth bakes regularly , so we aren’t short of shortbread and chocolate brownies. We also bake our own bread. Trouble is, it!s all eaten quickly so none left for anyone else. Thanks for stopping by:)

      I have often wondered about the kitchen chaos and why every pan bowl needs to be dirty. When I cook, I clean each as I go so that there is no mess at the end, but then to each their own.

        Hi Soren, I clear up as I go along as well. Guess everyone’s different and she does eventually sort the mess out in her own time. She bakes so well though. Thank you for stopping by.

        Good write Cassie. So she can stand the heat and doesn't have to get out of the kitchen?! lol.

        • Cassie58

          She stays in the kitchen Orchi, till all the clearing up’s done regardless of heat or freeze 😂 Bloomin good baker she is too. Happy Friday.

              I do, but also agree with you about keeping clear of the kitchen.

            • Teddy.15

                The kitchen smiled, the dishwasher worked overtime and the loader flaked out...but by jingo them edibles made themselves scarce. That aroma is just reaching me now....

                • Cassie58

                  Our Beth cooks great chocolate brownies and shortbread Dave. You’re right though, they don’t last long. Yes, the aroma is delicious isn’t it? Have a great whatever time it is there. Not sure of the time difference.

                  • Doggerel Dave

                    Me either - But the time , like the weather is somewhat contrasty, I think...

                    My tummy is rumbling! Beth sounds like a great baker indeed! As for messes, any time I try to bake or cook, look out! Lol! Comes out tasting great, but the clean up 😬😱 😂 A wonderful, sensory rich write, Cassie! 🌹👏

                    • Cassie58

                            I have sessions of baking, I have been baking my own bread and rolls for many, many years.

                            The biggest problem Cassie is when I make biscuits as every time I pass the biscuit barrel I have to have another one to see if they are still alright to eat. LOL
