Food and Baking is something I really enjoy. I enjoy both eating and preparing food. If the working hours and wage would be better for chefs I probably would train myself to be a chef, but since it's not it's just going to be a hobby of mine. When I cook or bake, I usually don't think about anything else. It's one of the ways I relax and calm myself down if I am too intensely studying and need a break. Usually I make quite big portions so I can give out bread, buns, cake, pancakes... It's something I am probably better at than the average 18-year old student and I enjoy hearing complements on my cakes and bread.
Today I decided to make chicken soup for my family, so that we can eat the same thing for a couple days more. The recipe is super simple and the dumbest person ever could probably make it. I got the original recipe from a Finnish cook book, but I have altered it. This is usually how I make everything, get a recipe make it once according to it and then alter it to fit better with my tastes.
One really nice thing to have is a empty recipe book. Me and my mom got one from Hullut Päivät (Galna Dagar - a 5 day sale at Stockmann a department store), but it stayed unused until I left to Norway and started to collect nice recipes there. Now I have about 10 or 15 recipes there and more are coming almost weekly. A empty notebook works as well.
Now that I am home and have more options to cook food I will try to post some recipes and food related posts more. Also I will start to schedule posts that are on topics and not on my everyday life,so that when I have time I can write a lot and when I don't have time things will still be published. Posts in the future will be related to Finnish food (and how to make it), my pescotarianism, bread etc. It depends on what I am doing and eating at the moment.
