Baking up a storm.

An impromptu baking party emerged in our apartment during the middle of the week. We were all under stress from school, and I have recently discovered that baking can be a wonderful stress reliever. (Side note: unless you have three people making separate concoctions in one very tiny kitchen; or maybe the "toasted coconut" turns into "flaming coconut" and the obnoxious fire alarm goes off 3 times - all of which can add stress.. so, beware). Regardless of some minor difficulties, we had a wonderful time. I live with these girls, but rarely get to hang out with them all at once. We voted, and unanimously decided that baking parties should be a weekly staple.

Not to mention, Friday was Layla's birthday (my fourth roommate). She has three full plates of key lime cupcakes and german chocolate cookies to eat.
