that's what she baked.

Adventures (and misadventures) in the kitchen from a novice baker.

Here’s a picture of my new knife that I got at a tag sale! Actually, it was a gift since we don’t have good sharp knives in my apartment, this was purchased for me at a yard sale. What a bargain! I went to a cooking class last Friday (more on that once I get the pictures) and realized I really don’t know how to cook much. Yes, I spend a lot of time in the kitchen baking, but not cooking. I heat things up, I use boxes, I follow directions, I use the microwave as a tool too much, I am not a cook. I had so many questions and was nervous to do anything without an okay first by the instructor. While there, I used a good knife for maybe the first time in my life, I had no idea what I was missing. I haven’t really been a fan of sharp objects but having a good knife makes all the difference. I used it to chop up my pecans for the zucchini bread. I’m excited to have a good knife now. I’m going to get better at cutting foods and I’m going to cook more. Maybe.
