I sometimes make a pound cake or some brownies. I only do that maybe two or three times a year, then buy store made all other times.

Depends on how much time I have. If I have the time I prefer to bake myself but if I get a lst minute invite or decide to go to a socal at the last minute I will buy.

When I was younger I would always bake around the holiday. Now a days my husband and I are always watching our weight and my son is diabetic, so I don't bake as much as I used to.

i like to bake because its a lot cheaper and can bake more. but sometimes i buy if i ran out of cookies and i have a craving of something sweet.

when I have time I prefer homemade.  But, if I have to work a lot during the holidays, I don't mind taking a little help from the deli or bakery!  :wave:

I never learned to cook or bake so my cooking skills are nil.  I started cooking the basics when I got married, but I can't make cookies or cakes or any baked goods.  My cakes, even from a box, never came out right.  However, I love to eat other people's baked goods.

Bake all the way! You can't always trust the quality of store bought items.

If I work hard at work, I don't have time, so I buy it at the store.  I buy Macaroni salad at the store.
