Hi bakers! This week marks our second seasonal ingredients challenge. Showcase something that is in season where you live (or, barring that, something that is themed on the season it is where you live). If you're not sure what's in season where you are there are tons of resources online, or you might even hit a local farmer's market and choose something!

For example,,,

Simple Cherry Cake - Using fresh cherries which are currently in season in New York

Easy Kiwi Tart - Kiwi is in season in New Zealand

Lychee Baked Yogurt - Lychee (aka litchi) is in season in India now

I just read that the original tollhouse recipe from the 70s had water in it, so I added some. Presumably that's the way Grandma would have been accustomed to them. Mom said these were one of her faves.

Recipe. My crust had yeast in it because I forgot the nature of the challenge.

Hi bakers! This week's challenge is Celebration of Life, where we celebrate the life of a loved one by making something they love/d. This can be for someone who has or has not passed on. We'd love to hear about your relationship to this person and why you chose to make what you did.

Ordinarily I would post a few sample recipes here, but given that this is something so personal, I will forgo that this week.

Happy baking!

Flatbreads are, shockingly, quite flat and thin. They are usually unleavened (no yeast or rising agents), although there are some exceptions like pita. They alsp typically do not use rich ingredients like butter or eggs.

Quick to make, healthy to eat, they can be a great side to soak up sauce, pick up a dip or sandwich some meat / veggies. Since they are thin, they can be made on a griddle or grill instead of an oven.

There are a variety of flatbreads across cultures. Try pita and for bonus points make gyros. Or make some naan on a skillet - and discover how easy and tasty a base for pizza it can be.

For something richer and more substantial, try these flaky scallion pancakes

Let us know what you'll be making this week and what you're going to pair it with for a full meal.

I made the mistake of not trying these when they were fresh. My mom did and thought they were great. I did not enjoy the following morning.

This is another of those creative weeks. The sky's the limit on what you can bake, and extra points if it looks like the sky!

You can try focaccia art of flowers. Or cupcakes decorated with piped roses. Use dried flowers or herbs to decorate a cake. Make a chocolate mud pie with gummy worms. A galaxy cake to celebrate the night sky or the Northern lights.

It's spring in the northern hemisphere, a walk on a nature trail or a trip to the beach may bring unexpected inspiration. Good luck with whatever you choose to bring to life!

Recipe

Made for eurovision, and it was a fail in every way. The cake was top flat to cut in 3 layers, the custard never set, and, as you can see, the marzipan cracked apart.

Consequences and revenge are not the same thing. If he doesn't receive the direct consequences of his actions, he will not learn that he shouldn't do that. Clearly he is incapable of learning via polite means. You are not the only person he's doing this to, and it is not acceptable.

Love this bit:

“The State of Florida has not justified this grave restraint, and so the United States Constitution does not tolerate it. Ours is a Union of individuals, celebrating ourselves and singing ourselves and being ourselves without apology.”

The real identity politics were the Conservatives we met along the way.

Nudity is not inherently sexual; that's just our cultural hangup.

They are referring to this meme.

Have you ever watched Blues Brothers?

"What kind of music do you play here?"

"Oh we have both kinds, country and western."
