Baby, it's cold outside! The polar vortex has returned to the Midwest, and it is brutal. I'm talking temperatures in the negatives. Yep, that's cold! So, what better way to keep warm, than to bake something delicious? I mean eating yummy baked goods warms your heart, and the warmth of the oven helps warm the air. Sounds like a win-win to me.
