I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think I'm tired of baking for a while. I have family in town so for the last two weeks I've made: 3 apple pies, 1 banana cream pie, a batch of cream horns w/ espresso cream, lollipop cookies, coconut-pineapple cake and 3-d cars cake. They were all from scratch except the 3-d cake. I'm very tired now. I don't want to bake ANYTHING for a while. (Though I have to make a birthday cake next weekend for a friend.)

I have my last pie in the oven as we speak. I hope it turns out ok. Whenever I'm tired my baked goods don't turn out as good.

Anyone else going to take a baking break?

I'm was up till 3 this morning making cheesecakes and now I have 2 pies in the oven and 1 more to do tomorrow for family functions. I'm burned out too and think I'll take the next few weeks off from baking anything unless absolutely necessary.

Yikes 3am!! I'm sure that I'll get the itch to make something soon. I made so much over the last two weeks but it always went to family so I'm kind of wanting to make a small batch of something just for here at home.

Can't say as I'll ever tire of baking. Eating, however, I am bored with. We had Raman for lunchto give my taste buds a rest! The last batch of cookies I made is almost untouched, as is the leftover spaghetti which I would normally devour.

Baking is hard to tire of for me because I need the creative outlet. Plus the smells that fill the house, and the oven going gives a different kind of warmth than just the furnace. All I need is a maid to clean up after me, and I'd be set!

I'm a little burned out on baking, too. Plus, I could happily go another year without seeing another cake ball! I think I'm going to start working on improving my cheesecakes for a while, to pacify DH. He doesn't like cake very much, but cheesecake is a different story...
