[quote=Anonymous]How do you handle wanting to bake more things than your family can conceivably consume or that are reasonable to take into the office?

Baking is something I do to relax and I find it deeply satisfying. I'm very good at it and have reached a point where I can tweak recipes and experiment and it works out well. I collect baking recipes and am always thinking up a new idea of something to bake.

But my household is just my DH and DD and we can't eat all the bread, pastries, cakes, and cookies I want to bake. I give things to neighbors and I always volunteer to bake whenever we are invited to someone's house or there's a bake sale or any excuse really. It's still hard! I often find myself choosing not to bake even though it's something I really enjoy because I don't want to wind up with an excess.

Does anyone else have this problem? What do you do? My DH's tongue in cheek suggestion was that I become a professional but I don't think that's the answer :). I got a book of savory baking recipes to try and branch out but they are still mostly snacks foods, not dinner, so it's not helping that much.[/quote]
