Baking Gals!

My super fab cousin, Christiana introduced me to Baking Gals awhile back. My hubby deploys all the friggin' time so I thought this would be something fabulous to join!

He made a comment once that really hit home with me. I try to spoil him when he is deployed and send at least one care package a month. However, he said there are some guys and gals out there that don't receive anything. That was it! Not only did I start sending him quadruple of everything to share, but I knew I had to join this organization!

This post is also about baking as well. Those of you that have read some other posts know that I'm not the world's greatest chef. I try, but it usually ends in disaster. However, we did find something I'm great at. BAKING!

My Nana has been telling me for awhile now that I need to make these for C. He doesn't have a huge sweet tooth, so I often don't bake much when he is home for the fear that I will eat everything (this isn't so much a fear as a fact, ugh). Once baking gals said "welcome aboard, get to baking", I knew I had to do this! So I did! And I think it was a successful mission!

Moral of the story? Join Baking Gals. You not only help a guy or gal overseas out, but you also learn a little something about yourself. That you can bake like a champ, yo!

Before cooking. It looked like a hot, delicious mess of goodness. Yummmm. Oh, and something else...Unsweeted baking chocolate tastes awful.

Not too shabby if I may say so myself! Perhaps I should have tried a bite to make sure it was edible??

Tastes like heaven :)
