    I did make my strawberry tart yesterday. And cinnamon roll for breakfast at our friends. Calories be damned, obviously. Sorry, the tart picture won't upload for some unknown reason.

    I'd have a hard time with that. I am notorious for licking batter bowls, tasting my creations, etc. I find that I have to chew a piece of gum whenever I'm in the kitchen so I'm not constantly sticking food in my mouth.

    Chewing a piece of gum is definitely helping me even when I'm meal prepping. It's a great hack!

    I try to bake for events only. That way I don't have any leftovers to eat. If I have to experiment, I send it to my husband's job or give it to the tech guys at my job. They really appreciate it, even when I am not pleased with the final product.

    I can bake bread, cookies and layer cakes fairly well -- what eludes me is making a smooth pound cake(my favorite kind -- I hate frosting!) with no fat streaks, so I experimented a week ago . Big mistake. The first practice cake -- a key lime cake that still had the streak, but tasted perfectly delicious otherwise -- I almost ate single-handedly. That's when I learned to pass it on rather than let it pass my lips.
