Part 1- The Realization It all started three days before August 1st. I had spent a good part of the day baking and I was testing different simple syrup amounts on my lemon blueberry pound cake. Each slice I ate had been soaked in a different amount and I was trying to figure out the best ratio of simple syrup to pound cake. It wasn’t until after about the fourth slice, when I started to feel sick. My stomach was feeling sick from the high amounts of sugar I was consuming and my mind was feeling sick at the fact I was just stuffing my face with slice after slice…

June 2017 Calendar Wallpapers
