Love Joy [the Baker]

I have major love for Joy the Baker. I adore her writing style - I can hear her as I read. I enjoy her podcasts with Tracy Shutterbean. And of course, I'm in awe of her innovative recipes. Joy is consistently creative and I consistently go to her site for recipes. I've tried other sites, but when it comes down to it, I'll use a Joy the Baker recipe because I know it'll be perfect.
