Baking Catch-Up!

I know, I know, I suck.... It's been way too long, and I'm sorry! I have a couple of things I want to update. The pictures are a little bit blurry, so I apologize.

I also had tons and tons of oats and raisins around the house, ergo, I made a huge batch of raisin pecan oatmeal cookies. This is Ina Garten's recipe for her favorite oatmeal raisin cookies. Anyone want some? 'cause I have a ton....

This is what I've been up the past couple of weeks. More to come on my adventure to a special bakery in NYC.
