First entry..


I have heard for so long about all the people who blog about absolutely anything. From their day to day adventures, to cooking. I've given it a try in the past but after one post, I got bored of blogging and gave up. I needed something better to blog about, and in the last few months I have decided I'm going to teach myself how to cook, and what a better way to go through this adventure then with a blog!!


I bought the Betty Crocker cookbook a couple months ago and have been trying to cook my way through it ever since. Some successes, some epic fails...but all in all, I am learning and that is my goal.


My cookbooks include my moms copy of the Canadian Cook Book, the Joy of Cooking, the Good Housekeeping Cookbook and of course, Betty Crocker. I've also acquired some Betty Crocker magazines over the past couple weeks along with some Kraft ones.


I've been giving this cute little Fall Baking magazine (betty crocker of course!) a try with a few fall-like desserts. The first being pumpkin swirl brownies, which ended up being more so a pumpkin swirl nanaimo bar. Note: do not put brownies in the fridge to cool!!!


My next dessert try were pumpkin tartlets, which were actually successful!!
Julia Child once said to never apologize to what comes out of your kitchen, I have to admit I've been embarrassed by a few dishes but here's hoping to a flavourful future in cooking :)

  1. Those look good enough to eat Ms Goddess. Too bad we couldn't just pluck one off that cooling rack and have a taste. Keep it up. I am looking forward to your next instalment!
