But gifts when you least expect them are the best.
Jen from over at Calling Dr. Bombay surprised me with a gift today.
A cookbook - how appropriate!
Not just any cookbook. What my husband called "a door stopper" size cookbook - 560 pages of yummy recipes.
Baking in America by Greg Patent.
I have already begun reading. Yes I read cookbooks. And I mark recipes I want to make someday. So all I have to do is pull a book and see where my tags are.
I need a chocolate cake for Father's Day and to fulfill this month's Blog Party over at Dispensing Happiness. This book arrived just in time.
I am thinking about Chocolate Buttermilk Layer Cake...or Malted Milk Chocolate Cake...or Kentucky Chocolate Sheet Cake...or Chocolate Souffle Cake...or...
Thanks Jen!

I just know you are going to make one of these fabulous cakes and then post a picture. The damn thing will look like it just came from a high-end bakery and leave me wanting a slice or 3.
i'm so glad you like the book and i know you'll put it to good use!!
and definitely post pictures of the goodness you will bake!
I appreciate the vote of confidence you both have in me. If you only knew how many disasters I have made, I just don't post about them.
Please. Post photos and stories of the disasters. I just don't believe you.
