I Discovered Baking

After the Betty Croaker instant cakes became boring, I tried to sway my newly discovered kitchen talents into sweets.  And the results are award winning (at least in the Wife Awards category!)
Lately I have been using some of my mom’s recipes in making Apple Pies, Cinnamon Rolls, and Chewy Chocolate – Chip Cookies and they are turning out to be delicious; if you intend to turn a blind eye on all the sugar, butter, and calories!
 



If anyone is interested in a recipe, I’ll be glad to share!

I discovered cooking!

New restaurants, new foods, new flavors, and presentation appeal to me. I enjoy going to restaurants, surveying the details in décor, trying new dishes from different parts of the world and how they r served. In Lebanon of course!
In Lebanon, dishes are cooked with a twist…a Lebanese twist that appeals to the Lebanese’s tastes. Chinese food doesn’t include bugs, Indian food isn’t too spicy, and American food isn’t too fatty; it captures the tastes, minus the cons.
Recently, I have taken all my restaurant experiences (including my mom’s extra delicious cooking methods) and put them to the test in my own kitchen.
And I love it!
Lasagna, Chicken Tortellini, Romano Bread, Fajitas, Chicken rice and yogurt… are some of the foods I have mastered. (Grin)
Cooking is creating… creating with delicious art. Colored peppers just shine, and the texture of an avocado is so soft and squishy, and the small of butter at it melts in the pot raises guilt feelings in a way nothing can.
I can’t wait to create more, something new and yummy!
