Thank you everyone for the encouragement. It's great to be able to share my excitement. They talk about it being a journey and it is like that. I never bake and it's so great to be feeling inspired again. I am feeling really domesticated and have started cleaning bits that have needed cleaning for ages. I feel like the drudgery has been washed away. And its such a joy. I even feel more like a proper mother. I used to feel so bad when my boys were disappointed that I wasn't baking for them. Even if what I make is gone in 5 mins after they get home from school it's a such of accomplishment. Does that make sense?

I am so glad your food disappears quickly. Then you have the chance to make some more. I love baking but we have to watch that we don't consume too much or we will be bigger blimps.
What a lovely compliment your family are paying you.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
