If you are near Sandy’s path, we hope you are safe, sound, well-fed, and occupied (i.e. movie marathon). The wind has picked up in Brooklyn (I live in Dumbo) and the rain appears on the horizon. Fingers crossed for this thing to blow over with minimal damage…

I thought I would interrupt our regularly scheduled blog thingamajig to share a few photos of the “calm before the storm”. Most of the photos were taken around noon in the Dumbo area…and I fired off a few quick shots from my apartment looking out into storm central. And of course, I baked a Double Chocolate Loaf in one of our nifty new Baked Loaf Pans because it just seemed like a good game plan (apologies for the product placement but I really do enjoy both the mix and the pan…sigh)…be well everyone and be safe. More from all of us at Baked later.
