First post! Ololol!
Enough of that. I rather suppose I had better introduce myself.
My name is Natasha. I'm a twenty-something year old writer, baker, rat wrangler, unicorn protection specialist, dreamer etc based in north west Kent, UK. I have a serious sweet tooth and a passion for creating, whether that be the written word, mediocre artwork, or generally rustic and magically delicious cakes and confections. My dream is to own a chocolate tempering machine. And perhaps, you know, have enough money to live on. And world peace. And stuff.
The reason for creating this blog is mainly a selfish venture. I love to write and I love to bake, and any combination of the two is rather like mustard and roast beef, cheese and chocolate, peas and barbeque sauce; self indulgent and utterly perfect to me. Being that I am, like most graduates since 2008, perpetually looking for work or only working part time, I have plenty of time (and not always enough money, sob) to indulge my hobbies.
I pondered holding off creating this blog until Christmas, as December is like my NaNoWriMo for baking; lebkuchen, cranberry sauce, sugar cookies, brownies, mincemeats various, cakes, yule logs, mince pies, peppermint concoctions and pretty much anything and everything else, every day, for 24 days. phew. However there is no time like the present, and since summer is party season, I've been busy bakering and, you know, fattening up my friends. It makes me feel good about myself. Ohohoho.
I'll be posting recipes I'm enjoying or ones I've tweaked to what I consider perfection, as well Learn From My Fail photos and anecdotes. As the blog title suggests; I have a long way to go in the world of baking.
Hope to see you all around. Later Days!
