It’s September and that means it’s the beginning of the season of spice, apples and pumpkins. Quiet applause and a whisper of hurrah – the ‘baker’s ball’ of autumn has begun! Welcome back to the wheaty land of Baking Camelot aka Betterbaking.com. Dear Friends and Fellow Bakers, Welcome to the September 2023 issue of Betterbaking.com! I’m […]
A Note from Marcy, December 2020
Hello Bakers and Friends, Welcome to the December 2020 issue of Betterbaking.com! It’s hard to believe we made it through the year, if not the continuing storm, aka 2020. Just a few months ago the world as we knew it shifted and at times actually shut down. Our lives became about health, family, and appreciating […]
A Note from Marcy, January 2019
Dear Fellow Bakers and Friends, Welcome to the regular January 2019 issues of Betterbaking.com. I hope you’ve all had a wonderful holiday and are easing into January with a sense of serenity, optimism and an appetite for a brand new year of baking adventures.

A Note from Marcy, July 2021
Dear Bakers and Friends. Welcome to the July 2021 Issue of Betterbaking.com! Happy Canada Day to fellow Canadians, happy July 4th to my American readers, happy Ginger Cookie Day (look it up) and happy July to my fellow bakers wherever you are on the globe. Summertime in these parts calls for easy baking which means […]
A Note from Marcy, March 2023
Dear Friends and Fellow Bakers, Welcome to the March 2023 issue of Betterbaking.com! A few months ago an editor of mine asked me to pitch some stories that were ‘evergreen’. I’d never heard this term before with regards to food features but I quickly discovered it referred to stories that as you would presume can […]
A Note from Marcy, November 2021
Dear Friends and Fellow Bakers, Happy month of November, aka the month of gratitude, that is, if you’re eyeing American Thanksgiving up ahead or simply all about the upcoming Black Friday deals and grateful for bargains (spoiler alert – beware of supply chain issues this year) I confess, I used to be a November shade-thrower. […]

A Note from Marcy, September 2020
Dear Fellow Bakers and Friends, Welcome to the September 2020, aka 5781, the dawn of the Jewish New Year. It’s hard to believe we’ve arrived at Labour Day and the beginning of a new season. It seems a decade ago or perhaps just yesterday we were at the outset of the pandemic. In March, now […]
A Note from Marcy, September 2021
Dear fellow bakers and friends, Judging from the humidity around here these days it still feels like high-summer but as balmy as it is, it definitely smells like fall. To underscore the seasonal shift, the maple leaves in front of my house are sporting brown-tinged leaves and both my basil and oregano plants are going […]
A Note from Marcy: Jan 2016
Dear Bakers and Friends, Welcome to the sweetest month on the baking calendar! Valentine’s Day is on the 14th but I start the holiday early. I bake, pick small gifts and do my own girl shopping. There are three times of year where I buy a new perfume: my birthday, when a new event in […]
