i am a recent graduate from college, and am now a video freelancer.
i love to cook for my boyfriend (he doesn't eat fruits or vegetables so it makes it very challenging!) and make dinner for friends.
music and hot chocolate are my passions!
My favorite things to cook
i love to bake and i make exquisite chocolate chunk cookies! i bought The Complete Canadian Living Baking Book and it has become my personal bible!
My favorite family cooking traditions
whenever my mum makes a pie crust, i will always take the leftover dough and make pet-de-soeur (translated to "nun farts"). it's almost like a mini cinnamon roll.
My cooking triumphs
for thanksgiving with friends 2009 i made a great homemade pumpkin pie and was very proud of myself.
My cooking tragedies
i decided i would make muffins for a bake sale at school and left out sour cream (i was thinking, who in the world puts sour cream in muffins!?) and they basically exploded in my oven, oozed all over the sides of the pan, onto the bottom of the oven, and then i had to clean it up!
*note to self, don't leave out two cups of wet ingredients ever again*
