So I am too. I am baking an old-fashioned chocolate - very yummy! I will be trying your sponge when our strawberries come in. The ones in the store now look good but have no flavor at all.

(That and I kill plants....so if you have any words of wisdom there, I'll take that too). <br /><br />Moving right along, no more moping and salivating at your baking concoctions that you just so happened to "whip up." I'll be inside studying on this fine day, for a final exam I write next week. Yay.
