the joy of baking

... and the torture of not having enough calories allowance to consume the whole batch.

lately i'm in a baking fever. have been trying cinnamon rolls to no avail. now i have a laundry-basketful of rock-like rolls. if you know a good recipe, please share, will you?

these biscotti, however, turned out beautifully. here is the recipe i used. they are simple and divine. i do wonder though, if i reduce the amount of butter--so that i can eat more than half a dozen each time, will that take away the heavenliness of these goodies?
