What's in the Name?

It took some time thinking up a name for this blog.  I finally chose something that I feel is rather appropriate - both the title of the blog and the web address have great meaning.
Saranac Lake, NY

First off, my name is Sarah.  Hi, how are you doing?  Nice to meet you.  Second, I like the word serendipity.  I like it's meaning.  I don't believe too much in random circumstances, however, I do enjoy the idea that God likes to surprise us with good surprises.  He delights, for His glory, to give His children good things especially when we aren't looking for them.  There have been many times in my life where there is evidence of God's goodness and love for me.  Thus the title: Sarahdipity.

That's creative! Now how does the website address relate?  Well, if serendipity is finding something good and this web address is "bake something good" what do you guess this blog will be about?  You guessed it - here is where I will be sharing all my favorite baked goods!  Now, I will not pretend that I am an expert baker.  Here is where the title takes on it's full meaning.  Most of the time that I bake something, it turns out good somewhat unexpectedly.  I don't come up with my own recipes and very rarely do I deviate from the exact measurements of a recipe.  So, I take no credit for the ideas.  It's more the implementation of the ideas that I find great joy and satisfaction in, and I hope you do as well!

So come on back each week and see what I've baked.  May you be inspired to bake something good (even if it's unexpected) yourself!
