Welcome! And I’m glad I’m not alone, I nearly always forget the vanilla.

The amount of vanilla is small enough that I don’t always notice it in the frosting, because even good frostings mostly taste like sugar!

Hey Megan, originally found you via craftypod. We get that vanilla here in the UK. Mmmm, vanilla…. anyway, I wanted to let you know I’ve really enjoyed your daily photos, and I always look at them when I see them in my reader. Your photography skills are really good, I always seem to learn from your photos. Keep up the good work!
