With fall in almost full swing (hey, I can definitely see red leaves at this point of time) and the Jewish high holidays right around the corner, my desire to make and bake is definitely increasing. I saw a video recently of this woman making amazing shapes of bread and thought to myself ‘I wanna […]
In my opinion Cherries (especially when they are fresh) are a sexy fruit. They’re red, luscious, sweet and just always look so inviting.
