The Longest and Most Delicious Tuesdays with Dorie Catch-Up Post

Prepare yourself, my friends. This post is long. However, it is also temptingly delicious. It took a lot of patience and determination for me to dig up the photos and gather the post information. My utmost apologies for the lack of commentary on how I liked the dish. Each and every one of these recipes deserves their own. But for the sake of goals, I have to post all of my catch-up recipes before the clock strikes midnight on December 31. I have to prove that I finished and posted! (Note: I do intend to do individual posts at some point for many of these...too many other delicious pictures and notes must be recorded.)

I have to stop and say that I am so proud of myself. I have no idea how I did this. The majority of the catch-up recipes you see here were made between August and November. It's insane. But even with starting the group 8 months after it began and then having 117 recipes left to do in March of 2011. I did it! I did it!

Please enjoy. And check back tomorrow. I'm posting the Floating Islands. It was the recipe I saved for last and it was amazing. I am writing more thoughts about this marvelous journey called Tuesdays with Dorie on its post. By the way, did you see the article in the Washington Post about our little baking community?

Okay now for my 42 catch-ups in one post!

Way to go Becky! The desserts were outstanding, the photography was wonderful, and the accomplishment was huge. Well done, and here's looking forward to a nice long rest for our poor Kitchen-Aid.

I am SO proud of you! What an accomplishment. Dorie's recipes are the best! Glad you enjoyed your baking journey!

I'm so very impressed that you finished all of the recipes in Baking in 2011. And a little bit envious, I must say. I will finish also, but by the July anniversary of when I joined TWD. All of your baked goods look amazing and I know they tasted great - they're Dorie's recipes, after all!! Congratulations on a job well done.

Way to go! What were your favorites from the whole experience?

What an amazing accomplishment!! I have 78, gulp, to go. But I plan to fit them all in by the end of the year, although your super-human feat has inspired me!
