Evil Shenanigans

I am a part-time culinary student who has a full-time passion for food – and if that food is dessert or bread all the better. I have lots of things to say about food and baking and am happy to share the recipes I try. In fact, I like to share because I want everyone to be able to try the things I talk about.

I prefer my baked goods to be from scratch and made with fresh ingredients, but that does not exclude recipes that may contain (gasp!) a cake mix or other convenience food. My number one rule is that it taste good and be honest. (If it is cake mix I will tell you, and I shall not be ashamed! Well, not much anyway)

In a former life I sang opera. I bellydance for fun. If I could live in any other place, I would live in Dublin, Ireland. I love reading and writing, but have more talent with the former than the latter. I may be obsessed with Nigella Lawson. One day I shall open my own bakery and you will all be invited!

I am happily married, have three dogs, I love hockey, I am a proud Texan, and I have perpetually messy house.

Life is good!
