Baking and Chill



As my life is changing so drastically and the fruits of good ol' fashioned hard work are starting to ripen, I feel old passions simmering to the surface too. The last fine dining restaurant I worked at almost completely broke my passion for cooking. Since then I have mainly just cooked for necessity rather than joy. After being invited to a simple brunch and seeing the chef buzz around his kitchen and looking at his vast expanse of cooking books, it clicked. I felt it again. I want to cook for joy again. Why should I let a bunch of misguided, cruel and lost past work colleagues destroy my love for the one thing I truely appreciate and love. Food. So here it goes... watch me shine!

I think I will start off with something easy, something lemon squeezy. Savoury cheese, herb and smoked Paprika muffins. This decision is purely based on the fact that I bought these individual, colourful silicon muffin holders..and now is the time to rock them out. Get out your butter people, it's game ON!

I am on such a role. I did a crazy cleaning spree of my room. I beat my carpet on the washing line, I detroyed some spider's homes(I still feel bad about that) and I flipped some matresses...it's all happening in Samville. I have even paved the way for some more drawing and Harmonica time. Oh yes! I figured with all these life career and lifestyle changes, I may as well make the essential balance changes too of work and play. I am all about the ultimate good chill today. I plan to lay out all my projects and adventures in front of me and sit back and enjoy the ride...while munching on my savoury muffins of course. Yay for me!

Song of the day: Maker by Fink
Food of the day: Not muffins actually...I'm really enjoying my milo at the moment(yes, it's a drink but pffff!It's my blog, I am in charge here!)
