I have been putting off starting a baking blog for a long time. And for reasons unknown. There was really no reason not to start one considering baking is a huge love of mine. I seriously started baking around two years ago when I started seeing my [now ex] boyfriend.
I had been using Betty Crocker cookie mix [which is very good when you don't plan on baking from scratch. The cookies stay nice and soft thanks to all the butter and are delicious] but he thought they were homemade and was disappointed to find out they weren't. Thus, I became competitive about my baking for no reason whatsoever. I felt the need to prove that I was a damn good baker when baking from scratch.
Soon, my obsession with baking began and after two years of waiting, I finally got a stand mixer this past Christmas. I haven't had the chance to use it yet, which is disappointed but I'm planning on breaking it out soon. Plus, my parents are sick of it sitting in the living, where it has been since I received it.
I have collected an array of other baking supplies that I am excited about, which no one understands. I finally found a pack of six loose-bottomed tartlet pans after a year of searching at La Gourmet Chef and they only cost me $15. I also have a large loose-bottomed tart pan that I love as well as a mini muffin tin that I conned my mother into buying. She wanted me to make mini muffins and I had wanted a mini muffin tin so it was a good tradeoff. Labor for supplies.
But I will attempt to blog as faithfully as possible and as much as possible. Welcome to the adventures [and misadventures] of baking with me, Kait.
