A Season in Review...

This has been a most interesting summer. I experienced a great many firsts in my efforts to expand my knowledge of food, including the first birthday cake I ever baked for my grandmother. It looked beautiful but it tasted horrible; an epic let down to say the least.

However, this weekend, I reached a new height is pastry-making. Puff Pastry. I've actually spent the time and effort to make my own puff pastry from scratch. It was time consuming, and labor-intensive but the payoff was an exquisite flakey and delicious pastry that put a smile on everyone's face.

Stay tuned for a Thanksgiving update and pictures of the deserts I'm planning for the holiday...
