learn to bake

and suprise friends with lovely muffins :)

i really want to learn to bake pies. i hope i get better bc im a terrible cook!! hmmm i wonder how you get a job at a bakery, like as an assistant or something??

I love decorating cakes, but I actually have no idea how to bake. I’ve baked a few things in my time, but never without a recipe. Maybe this summer if I have my own apartment I will finally become the supremo baker I’ve always wanted. And I must get the recipe for pain au chocolat before I leave Paris!

I don’t mean the ready bake mixes that’s sold out there…anyone can bake that… what I mean is learn to do some stuff from scratch…

Yeah! I got lots of cool baking stuff for Christmas: cookie sheet, a cooling rack, measuring cups and spoons, muffin tins, cake pans, and a fab French rolling pin.

I did make ONE batch of Christmas cookies…candy cane cookies! I did everything right and they tasted okay, but I think there are far better cookies out there waiting to be baked…

My boyfriend is a chef, but he steers clear from baking and sweets, etc. so that could be my area of expertise without having to compete with a real chef! Christmas cookie experiment may be a good place to start…

let’s face it, I;m useless, and I really don’t want to poison any loved ones with my over-zealous perserverence.

Well, I’ve mastered it enough not to ruin the finished product!

(I’m very clumsy at cooking but I’d like to learn to bake just because I wanna accomplish something complex on the kitchen)

Hurrah to the basics of baking!
