A Note from Marcy January 2021
Hello Bakers and Friends, We did it! Ragged and weary, we’ve reached the finish line of 2020 and have popped up on the other side winter in a brave new world. Gotta love do-overs and fresh starts! While January lst 2021 can’t possibly be a moment of instant healing at least we can now see […]
A Note from Marcy January 2022
Dear Friends and Fellow Bakers, Happy New Year! I know what you’re thinking i.e. it doesn’t feel like the  Year of the Tiger but yet here we are. Tigers are brave, spirited and full of personal courage. I myself am not a Tiger (I’m a Horse) but I think 2022 definitely calls for Tiger-like attributes. So you […]

A Note from Marcy July 2018
 Dear Bakers and Friends, Welcome to the July 2018 issue of Betterbaking.com! I have a habit that gets triggered each time I find a new passion, whether it be hobby or work related.

A Note from Marcy July 2020
Hello Bakers and Friends, I trust all is well with you and you’re keeping safe. Baking makes me happy (surprise) and also seems to keep me out of trouble since these days since I won’t even buy a drive-through doughnut and coffee.

A Note from Marcy July 2022
 Dear Friends and Fellow Bakers, Welcome to the July 2022 issue of Betterbaking.com! One of the ways I know it’s officially summer is because I’m temporarily  or chronically without A/C and I certainly feel it. It hardly makes me want to bake but I have been doing so despite. My need to bake is greater […]
