Happy New Year! I can't believe it's 2016.  Time does truly feel like it goes very quickly, especially when there are kids in the home.  With another year, means another year older.  Kids grow up fast and time with them should be cherished and treasured, even with something as simple and as wonderful as baking together.

It's not just all about baking and the recipes you try together, it's about togetherness and another activity you can do together as a family.

It doesn't have to be anything fancy or over-the-top, even a simple baking recipe like bread or cookies, brownies, etc., is what makes the experience truly special.  All of the other little things included like the science and education behind baking is just a perk.

Baking with your kids in 2016 now has a whole new meaning for you and your family.  Make the most of it.  Go make some homemade pizzas together as you go forward in the new year.

What will you be baking this year?
