Sometimes, a girl has got to cheat. We can’t all be good at everything, even if we like to pretend.

We’re talking about baking, of course.

If it’s not your forte or, if you just don’t have the time to bake that bundt cake, we’ll let you in on a little secret. That poppy seed strudel loaf we brought over for dinner last week was not homemade—well, not in our home at least. While perusing the newly expanded Community Natural Foods, we came across a variety of Christmas baking. We’re talking fruitcake, butter tarts and cookies galore. Impress your health-nut friends with the wheat-free and gluten-free offerings that you made all on your own (wink, wink).

Now, if only our grandmother could be fooled.
