I am baking up a storm and loving it. 31 Days has spurred me to work through my recipe binder. I'll also be spitting out baking tips in an understocked kitchen, getting supplies in a remote area and other random thoughts.

Excited to be hitting the rails next Sunday. I've been making lists of old favorite restaurants I want to try in Portland, Oregon and Chicago. Plus creating Pinterest boards of places I want to try in Washington DC, Boston and Portland, Maine. My trips are always all about the food.

Friday I realized I will be in Salem, Massachusetts on Friday the 13th. How perfect is that!
