My favorite things to cook
Cinnamon buns - they fill my kitchen with their fragrance and bring back some of my sweetest memories.
My cooking triumphs
At age 14, I created a biscotti recipe that calls for banana, pine nuts, honey, and cinnamon. It is loved by all who have tasted it.
My cooking tragedies
Once I had a sudden craving for a slice of fluffy, golden cake. So I set out to bake one. While measuring the ingredients, I accidentally used 1/2 tsp baking powder instead of 1 tsp as required because I mixed up the spoons (and didn't realize the mistake until it was already beyond too late). The cake turned out like a brick and was eventually fed to ducks.
