The Mission
Alas! A food blog. Well, it’s more of a mission to convince myself that I’m patient and motivated person than anything. Where I got this sick idea is beyond me, but I’m going to (try to) do it. Why? Because I am a patient and motivated person; a patient and motivated person who loves to cook and bake and is interested in all the things a twenty-something shouldn’t be interested in.
My mission: 13 new recipes a month for 13 months.
Slightly crazy, I know. But if I fail, I didn’t call this “a Baker’s Doesn’t” for nothing, right? It’s only one new recipe every 2.3 days and in a land of ‘just-add-water’ cake mixes, frozen dinners and fast food restaurants, of course cooking from scratch sounds absurd. I’m here to tell everyone to get over it.
Hello Ms. Desmarais!
I just came across your site (actually Sally mentioned it awhile back), and I’m excited to see all the yummy stuff you’re making. I also love to cook and try to make as much from scratch as I can, so I think I’m going to try your falafel recipe sometime soon and I’m going to try browning the butter when I make brussel sprouts in the future. The apple ginger snap cookies also look amazing! Let me know if you come across a good granola recipe- it’s a but expensive, so I’d like to make my own, but I don’t want something that just tastes like plain rolled oats… Anyway, hope you’re doing well. Love the site! Keep up the good cooking!
Sara T! Thank you for reading and I’m glad you’re enjoying… I’ve been brainstorming a cheap/delicious granola recipe so check back soon. Congratulations on your engagement! Hopefully I run into sometime soon. xoxooo.
