Baking soda

I was too tired, last night, so I placed this sort of book mark here for myself

This is another thought inspired by baking. I still laugh every time I see the label that boast of "All Natural" baking soda, what on earth is unnatural baking soda? Sound interesting to me.

What I noticed as I tried several recipes was that the baking soda made the biggest difference.

But, the reason I was trying new recipes had nothing to do with taste.  Every one tasted great! but they did not look perfect. So the one I tried last night appeared best, but tasted terrible. It is not the first time I had a run in with Soda. I had previously decided never to use it again, after it clumped up and I got a brownie with a lump of baking Soda.

But, my conclusion was two part last night. 1) I had been warned countless times that you cannot have you cake and eat it. (story about my piano lesson in college where I asked my teacher to not be so picky since music was aural anyway) 2) I will not give up just because I have failed so far. Someone once told me that was what made me so above mediocre my never give up or settle attitude. I know thee exists a combination of ingredients that will produce both the most tasty and beautiful recipe.
