So, as I have said before, I am a huge baker!
I love, love, LOVE to bake!
I decided this summer that after I graduate from college I am planning to go to culinary school to become a pastery chef.
Now, I know that this might seem silly. Why graduate from a very expensive school with a really good degree and then drop that all to go to culinary school? Why waste time at one school if there is nothing there for you?
But, if you really know me, really really know me, then this idea wouldn't seem to odd. In fact it might make complete sense. So, for the time being, just go with it.
So bake to my love of baking. For some strange reason, in about 9th grade, I decided to bake some chocolate chip cookies, my favorrritteee chocolate chip cookies ever. I had found them in this reallyyyy old Betty Crocker cook book. It was that recipe though the led to my love for baking. Before I new it I was baking several times a week. I would bake for birthdays, for celebrations, for holidays, for classes, or just for fun. I made chocolates, cookies, pies, pasteries, brownies, everything that you can ever imagine. I have even made a 3 teir wedding cake for my mom's best friend. I loved baking but I never thought that i would be able to make a career out of it. I just thought it was a fun hobbie. I did always have adream though that when I was older and retired that I would open up a cute little bakery.
Well, that goal is still here, but this summer I decided I didnt want to wait until I was old and probably un-hip to follow my dream. I decided that after I graduate from college, if I am able to afford it and can get in, that I want to attend a pastery school so I can follow my dream!
I do hope that this can happen and I want to do everything in my power to make it possible.
Well anyways, this whole blog was just going to be about what I baked today but I guess I got a little side tracked.
TodayI baking chocolate chip cookie muffins from a Martha Stuart cupcake recipe book I got from my aunt this Christmas, some chewy coconut cookies from a recipe on Allrecipes.com, and some Ghirardelli hot chocolate that I made for my family after they got bake some selling Girl Scout cookies in the snowy weather.... I must say, it was a very successful day in the baking world.
