Food

Recently, I've gotten really into baking and cooking. Being unemployed, I have tons of free time, and lots of that free time is spent watching Food Network, or looking up recipes online for fun. I love food- eating it, making it, watching it, everything. I am constantly finding recipes that I want to try.

However, there are a couple of problems involved with this newly found passion:
1) I don't really have the money to be buying tons of ingredients.
2) I can't allow myself to be eating all these good foods all the time (all in moderation; a cookie never killed anyone!)
3) My older sister is the baker in the house. I don't want her to think I'm "stealing" baking from her, because that is not the case at all. I simply enjoy it.

A couple pictures of my baking ventures:






Chocolate chip blondies, topped with a variety of Oreo, Reese's peanut butter cups and chocolate chips












White chocolate chip and green M&M cookies, for a Jets game/party






















Sugar cookies decorated like footballs for a Super Bowl party

I've cooked dinner a few times, too, but I find pictures of baked goods to be so much more charming. I love desserts, especially those incorporating chocolate. I'm hoping to try out some more recipes soon, so I'll be sure to photograph them and report back ;)

Until next time, folks! And remember, let loose and enjoy a treat every once in a while!
