How nice....ain't life grand?
It is! When I was baking I did it just because I liked doing it.
When he sent me the recipe for the zucchini bread, he sounded really excited that he baked something, so I sent him the recipe for my German Pound Cake, which was the favorite I'd bring in.
He replied back with a really excited email about how now there were two things he could bake. Wow, that's really cool.
I guess it just goes to show, when I go and do what I enjoy and take care of myself, I'm not the only one who benefits. Which just proves yet again that taking care of myself is
not selfish.

I don't think that I can have zucchini bread again, and not think about this. Thanks for sharing this.
And thank you for sharing these thoughts, amy...
I'd never had zucchini bread before, but now I really like it, not only because it takes good but because it's taken on a whole different meaning than bread alone could have.
...speaking of which, it's lunch time, and I have some remains of zucchini bread calling my name.
