My true color is Red! This for the most part is so true....
The color is red, the color of racy sportscars, blushing cheeks, and luscious roses. Red symbolizes passion, romance, and love. So, since you're ruled by red, you probably trust your feelings more than your brain and tend to act spontaneously. If you see something you want, you go for it without thinking twice — impulsive is your middle name. You don't wait around for people to make decisions, either; you dive right in. Quite the romantic, you pay close attention to your emotions. In fact, if your heart isn't in what you're doing, you won't be satisfied. Of course, even when you do pour all your energy into the projects you tackle, your impetuous nature means your passions can shift as frequently as the wind. That's why some reds have trouble with commitment. Our advice? Next time you're feeling fickle, think before you act, if possible. You might be surprised at the results. Overall, though, it's great to be red. No one lives life more completely than you do.

Marathon Baker

We got a starter for an Amish Friendship cake recently and thought we'd try it out. Well, after 2 wks of starter growing we now have made 18 cakes (made in loaf pans). One could keep going with the batter you reserve as a starter x 4 to give to friends or make yourself more cakes. Colleen opted to make the cakes herself equaling a marathon baking session. She finally had had enough and threw the remaining starters down the drain. hehehe Good thing the cake is good.
