The weather around here has turned gray and brisk and for some reason that makes me want to eat more than usual! I crave warm foods like hot soup and hot chocolate. Of course the best part of this time of year is all of the goodies you can cook and bake. I love baking with cinnamon because it makes the whole house smell wonderful. You can come in from working in the yard or biking in the neighborhood and just soak in the aroma. And enjoy the treats too! I recently made a yummy batch of peach cobbler that turned out better than I expected. I think it helped that I had finally purchased some good quality nonstick baking pans so the food cooked very quickly and evenly.

If you like to cook and bake than it’s really worth investing in quality bakeware because it makes a big difference in the kind of results you’ll get. If you’ve ever baked in flimsy bakeware then you know that most of your food will cook unevenly and even worse, stick to the pan. Like when you try to bake a birthday layer cake  and it comes out of the pan in piece, leaving you to try to glue it together with icing and trying to hide the chunks that are out of place.
