I am not tipsy

As I'm writing this, Tipsy has her head plopped on my leg, staring at my keyboard with acute jealousy.  Yep, Tipsy is my dog. I am not writing this tipsy, trust me. The days for tipsy or buzzed writing are long gone, forever banished to ridiculous memories of UCSB. 

Why, then, did I name this blog 'Teaspoon of Tipsy'? Simply because I feel that's representative of where my life currently is.  I love to bake everything under the sun. Whether it's cakes, cupcakes, pies, brownies, cookies, etc., I'll attempt them all and I am constantly looking for different and unique flavor combinations.  I wanted a place where I could sort through all my different ideas and this is what I came up with.  However, because of my lovely shepherd mutt, my baking schedule has taken a serious hit.  I can't bake in the kitchen for long periods of time without dashing out to check where she is, what she's potentially eaten, or if she's done anything terrible. It's taken some creativity to be able to bake like I want and take care of her at the same time.

My goal with this blog is to chronicle my adventures with her and the kitchen, and baseball (when the season starts in April). I mostly attempt desserts, but will occasionally try cooking different things as well. That's all I really need... my dog, desserts, and the San Francisco Giants.

And without further ado...

I present Tipsy!
