Things I made in May

one of my favorite sights of spring

I saw this on another blog and thought it was a great idea. I wish I could give credit where it is due, but unfortunately, I don't recall whose blog I saw this on!

I kept a list for the month of May of things I baked, mostly to keep track of everything since I don't blog about it all. Sometimes I just don't have the patience or time to get out my camera and take photos as I go along (or the daylight, for that matter). I really surprised myself at how much I had written down just 11 days into the month! I was really on a roll I tell ya. A few of the items on the list I still plan to blog about but I just haven't gotten around to it yet. I've had quite the busy start to the month of June!

and now, for your reading enjoyment, I present, The List...

• dried strawberry macarons (2 batches)


• vanilla bean swiss meringue buttercream


• from scratch funfetti cupcakes


• chocolate date banana bread


• king arthur flour classic 100% wheat bread (3 loaves)


• milk chocolate chip buttermilk pancakes


• mini muffin bites


• espresso hazelnut macarons


• milk chocolate ganache


• vanilla sugar macarons


• orange & cream white chocolate ganache


• violet white chocolate ganache


• popovers with cinnamon & sugar (2 batches)


• chocolate muffins


• pickled grapes
  
  
• pain au chocolat cinnamon rolls
  
  
• chocolate hazelnut milk skin cake
  
  
• flourless peanut butter cookies


• apple strudel


• cannelé batter (had to freeze the batter to make the cannelés later)


• rhubarb sorbet


• baked garlic fries

Whew! I *think* that was all. I was pretty good about writing everything down. Not bad, huh? I'm off to a slow start for June, but we'll see what all I can whip up in the next few weeks.
