    My Mom baked every single day when we were growing up, with the exception of weekends. Like a typical kid I wanted what my friends had in their lunches- store bought. I traded her goodies for Oreos etc. I look back on it and laugh at myself now but can't imagine I did that!!
    She passed her love of baking on to me. I'm going to see her in a few days and won't trade her goodies for anything! YUMMY :thumbup:

    My mom baked every week. Just thinking about fresh baked bread and biscuits makes my mouth water. Unfortunately, I have never been able to bake like she did. That's probably a good thing or I would weigh a ton.

    My mom baked almost all of our baked goods when I was a kid. She baked bread once a week, every week and then she also made cakes and cookies on occasion.

    She bakes store-bought frozen pies, does that count? LOL

    My mom baked the best coconut cakes. She also baked a good pound cake. She usually make 2, because Daddy loved hot pound cake with a cup of coffee. Still my favorite is hot pound cake and the memories.
    My daughter and grandaughter have the talent for good cakes.
    These genes are past down the line.

    Funny! I was just talking with a senior neighbor yesterday. Neither of us could remember having store bought baked goods when we were young.

    My mom baked a lot of cookies, cakes, pies, bread, biscuits. I can't remember anything baked that we purchased ready made.

    My Mom baked alot of cookies and cakes, mostly boxed stuff. My Dad loved to make HM bread, and he made it almost every weekend. It was SO good!
