I’ve been away from the blog for what seems like forever now. I have to say that this time I have very good reasons. For starters, back in April I found out I was pregnant (yay) so it’s been kind of hard handling food for the first little while (those morning sicknesses? yeah they lasted […]
I love yeast dough! I really do. I’m not sure why but I think it’s the fact that it kinda “gives back” what you put into it. Am I making sense? didn’t think so. You see, yeast dough required patience and knowing which ingredients work together well and which don’t. And when you add the […]
