Somehow the end of the NHL season comes always so fast - weren't
pennyplainknits and I not just finished baking for playoffs?
Anyway, playoffs have started, the Pens are playing, so Penny and I will do some baking! ((We draw numbers with a random number generator to pick a player from the Pens, and then bake something traditional/ associated with their country/state/home town etc.))
Penny baked
classic black and white bakery cookies for Zach Aston-Reese, and well - the Pens got 7 goals, Matt Murray got a shutout, Sidney Crosby got a hattrick, the Pens got a win!
(Way to raise the bar, Penny!)
I'm baking for #2,
Chad Ruhwedel, a defense player.
He's from San Diego, California, USA, and I baked a
Maui Banana Cream Tube Cake for him (apparently it was created for Reds Espresso Gallery of San Diego).
(Since pecans are
really hard to get here, I replaced them with walnuts, but they are Californian walnuts!)

Go Pens! 🐧
