Danika LOVES to bake. She also LOVES desserts and so when we’re home she is constantly baking fattening food. We were all getting really mad at her because every weekend we’d all say to each other, “When we get home, we’re going to eat healthy food all week!” (Being on the road does have it’s draw backs when you’re trying to make healthy choices so we wanted to be really good when we were at home.) Anyway, Danika would make all these desserts and then, of course, we would all eat them. I tried to ban her from baking but she said, “Alika, me not baking would be like you never singing again! I like to bake and I’m going to bake if I want to!” So, instead we told her if she was going to bake she was going to have eat it all herself. She decided to start selling it instead! She made up some fliers and told everyone that she is making 11 different kinds of pie; Apple, Cherry, Pecan, Lemon Meringue, French Silk, Pumpkin, Peanut Butter, Sour Cream Raisin, Banana Cream, Key Lime and Coconut Cream. Our plan did kind of backfire because she had to make test pies (which dad LOVED) so we ended up eating lots of pie for a while but it wasn’t that bad (except for the Sour Cream Raisin, it had way too many raisins but I would never ruin a pie with raisins in the first place). Her new business has been keeping her pretty busy and it’s not even Thanksgiving yet! I can only imagine how crazy the days leading up to Turkey Day will be.
