Someone's In The Kitchen With Tanya

Oh wait, it's just me. Hahaha. Honest. I know that I am not known for my work in the kitchen, but recently I've been trying to change that. Don't get all excited just yet. I've just been doing desserts. I have no interest in meals yet. I like the goodies. hahaha.

It all started with a Christmas gift from some dear friends, a recipe card box with some special recipes. One of the cards was mini blueberry cream cheese tarts. That was pretty simple. Gotta take the baby steps. Then I made strawberry cake that Yuki makes all the time. Yum! Then orange dream cake. Yum!!! My next step I wanted to take was red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. They were pretty yummy! Then we compiled a cookbook at work for a fundraiser and I tackled the carrot cake cupcakes with cream cheese frosting recipe. Oh boy!!

I wish I had taken pictures of my accomplishments. Nobody will believe that I've been in the kitchen. Well, here is proof of one of my latest steps, chocolate chip macadamia nut cookies. These were yummy with soft centers.



Believe it or not, I'm baking. And hopefully I will continue. I already bought new muffin pans, cookie sheets, piping bags, decorator tips, parchment paper... Any reason to shop.
