This is For You. Tuesday, September 25, 2012. I used to work in the dining hall at Skidmore College. Correction: I spent most of my time working at the bakery at the dining hall, traying (and tasting, how could I resist? Cookies whilst talking with the pastry chefs. I vividly remember the warnings from Robin, Chucky and Matt about burns. Watch out hun, this rack is fresh from the oven," or "tray these ones first, the rest are much too hot!

This is For You: April 2012
http://biscaitie.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
This is For You. Sunday, April 8, 2012. I found some of my housemate's old music paper sitting in the recycling and thought it'd make great crane material. Recycled paper is always more interesting because a pattern is already there! Now I have many winged chains in the works, but I figured I'd post the first three around campus as a start. A little good intention goes a long way! Besides, it's Easter Sunday, who doesn't love a good hunt? Thank to my friends M and V for helping hide them!

This is For You: October 2012
http://biscaitie.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
This is For You. Thursday, October 25, 2012. Note: When baking anything with pumpkin flavor, upping the dosage of spice makes the flavor more pronounced (after all what is pumpkin without the spice? I also find that making your own mix makes for a richer and more complex flavor than the pre-made pumpkin spice blend. Here is my recipe for some delicious gooey pumpkin blondies:. 1 1/2 cups baking flour mix (one recipe recommended almond and coconut flour). 1 tsp xanthum gum. 1 tsp kosher salt. Except I add...

This is For You. Monday, February 27, 2012. During my lunch break today I slipped from one section of campus to the other posting 7 crane chains identical to this one in conspicuous places. It's fun being sneaky! Thanks to my accomplice for helping me find good posts. If you find one/found one, enjoy! These are great to hang as decoration. I made all of the cranes for each chain (15 x 7.105! To which I reply, undoubtedly! The trouble is I've never made them for one cause, UNTIL NOW! Posted by Caitie Allen.

This is For You: Oreo's with Sophistication
http://biscaitie.blogspot.com/2013/02/oreos-with-sophistication.html
This is For You. Saturday, February 9, 2013. Hiding away from slushy banks of snow.and I couldn't be happier. Normally, I develop cabin fever. I feel like there's something I should do outside, that I need to experience fresh air. But this Friday, I holed myself up with three good friends and made a day of reading, napping and of course, baking cookies. Who knew the weather would have such a big impact on my baking? 1 1/2 cups sugar. 1/2 cup light brown sugar. 1/2 cup dark cocoa powder. 1 tsp baking soda.
