baking bears

Well, my poor husband comes home today and walks into the kitchen saying "mmmmmm, something smells great.  What are you baking?"
He should know better by now.
He pulled the oven open and found
3 antiqued, distressed, dipped bears baking in the oven to give them that "dirty" look.  My Prim recipe is coffee, vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon - so it smells great.
