SugarnSpice and all Things that Taste Nice

This year we,KK, have discovered our passion for the kitchen, especially baking! We have definately fostered this newfound love and always keep the place stocked with flour, sugar, butter, chocolate chips, and cream cheese (yes it is a staple here). We like to cook and have fun making dinners together throughout the week, but as mentioned, our real favorite is baking. Early in the year we discovered our shared passion of twisting a whisk through a bowl and quickly started the Sunday Night Tradition. Sunday night has become our baking night, there hasn't been a Sunday when we've been here and not baked since we started this tradition. It's become a night of good food, good friends, and good times...
