One of the things I love about baking for the restaurant is going in early on Saturday mornings, where I can be alone and listen to Weekend Edition Saturday. (Yes, I am a complete and total NPR dork.) I live for the sessions Scott Simon has with Daniel Pinkwater, a children's author. They choose a new childrens book and take turns reading it (you should really follow the link and listen to it). This week, I was standing over the stove melting chocolate and was almost reduced to tears by the sweet book they chose, The Bake Shop Ghost, by Jacqueline Ogburn
. You should buy it for all the kids you know.
