Eat Cake Audiobook

" What a great book. I found the need to change one's career midway through life very refreshing. I love the family drama, but best of all, I love the idea of making cakes and getting caught up in baking-as-therapy. I like that there are recipes at the end as well. Such a light and fun and utterly fulfilling read. "

" The narrator begins this book by saying that her idea of an imaginged place of peace and security is the middle of a bundt cake. As a "perfect storm" of family problems hit her, she indeed finds a better sort of refuge in her love of baking. Funny, with more than superficial ideas. "
