Daring Bakers, take a bow because today is your second birthday!
It’s incredible but true. Two years ago today, Lis and I had a crazy idea to bake pretzels and now look where we are.
It has been two amazing years for us as we watched this group grow from two people to well over 1,000 bakers from all over the world.
While organizing The Daring Bakers certainly presents its challenges, I think I can speak for both Lis and myself when I say that I cannot imagine my blogging life without our little (big) group.
So Daring Bakers, everywhere, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Ciao!

Happy Birthday Daring Bakers! I was just thinking when I was making this month’s challenge that this challenge completes my 1st year with the group. I’m so glad I joined because now (thanks to the Julia Child French Bread challenge) I bake my own bread. I also can now make a pretty good buttercream. I can toss pizza up in the air and I am a lot less initmidated by a lot of recipes. So thank YOU for starting such a fun and informative group!

Wow, two years already?? I doesn’t seem like a year ago that I was congratulating you all on your first birthday and nervously contemplating joining up! How time flies…
Here’s to another wonderful year of challenges and huge hanks to you and Lis for, well… everything!

Only 2 years? It’s hard to believe you’ve built such a large and far flung community in that short amount of time.
Congratulations! And, thanks for including me among your ranks.
