Farm Chicks book and recipe.

                                    Here is a wonderful book I discovered at my local library. It has great ideas for decorating, crafting, and recipes....in fact I used one of the recipes and it turned out to be very YUMMY!!! The recipe is, "Mini orange bundt cakes", and it calls for fresh orange zest and freshly squeezed orange juice. I have never made a bundt cake of any size, and I have never zested an orange or any other citrus fruit in my entire life...so it was a first for me and it turned out to be delicious. Here is a hint about zesting....don't buy those zesters you see at stores, you can use the smaller sized grater on your cheese grater...you know, the one you might use for grating Parmesan cheese. Anyway, you should check out this book and other Farm Chicks books...they also have a blog. Below is a picture of the "Mini orange bundt cakes" I made.
Happy Baking! :0)
