Gettin Baked

For breakfast Lunch and Dinner I have had a lot of time to experiment with different recipes both easy and complicated.  I do not have too much experience as a chef and to be honest cooking is just not my forte.  However I do love to bake.  I tend to make cookies and the occasional cake but have finally had the chance to really indulge my curiosity.  Thats easy when you have access to a full kitchen and ingredients supplied by someone else.

I started with some basic bread, a loaf of whole wheat bread.  It was rather dense and tough.  Next I tried to experiment more by using the same basic recipe and adding a few things to end up with a chocolate and orange zest loaf of bread.  That one turned out delicious but still not quite as fluffy I would have liked so i decided to change it up.  I made some pizza dough and baked a delicious mustard and veggie pizza (Thanks to my brother Noah for the mustard idea).  It was perfect and i received lot of compliments on that one.  Due to the success I tried another pizza, this time in the Italian style with a few eggs on top. It was good but lacked the spicy kick and added moistness of the previous mustard based one.

This is when I decided to really go nuts.  I started making dough before I knew what I wanted to do with it.  I started cranking out loaves, garlic bread and an apple pie, my new favorite.  The entire time I was making the pie i didn't think it was going to work.  The dough looked to sticky, the apples didn't seem cooked, the filling looked too liquidy but in the end it turned out just right.  I was so excited at my successful and first attempt at a pie that I had to show it off.

What should I bake next?  Any ideas?
