Hi Barb,
So have you heard of Gesine Bullock-Prado? She is Sandra Bullock's sister.
She wrote a great book called "My Life from Scratch" which is part memoir, part cookbook. She used to have a bakery in Vermont or New Hampshire, but now she has a great blog devoted to baking with absolutely fabulous photos:

So check it out. It might be fun to share with your readers - especially any who have gotten into baking. Her stuff is professionally made -beautiful beautiful tortes, cakes, pastries.
