Thu, 02/02/2012 - 00:33 — erader1This is something that my nephews ( 10,13 ) and I have in common.....we all like watching "Cake Boss" Hard to beleive from boys that are usually playing video games.
Passion with baking!!!
Wed, 02/01/2012 - 23:00 — helliston@nc.rr.comMy daughter watches Buddy & his shows all the time. She has been inspired and loves to bake for any occasion. She bakes for friends, for school, for neighborhood birthdays and is not disturbed when something goes wrong. She dusts herself off and tries again. I love that fighting spirit and I know she loves that about Buddy. he never turns down a challenge!
We love Buddy - he and his show are so New York!
