Preheat the oven

I don't know about you, but whenever the weather turns bad, I feel this strong desire to lock myself up into the kitchen and bake. Maybe it's the heat of the oven, the calming ritual of following a recipe, but there is just something very comforting in baking cakes.

So, looking at the gray clouds outside, here are some new recipes I must try out:
