Captain Cook - The voyage for food


Becoming a chef is not the easiest of tasks, especially for a ten year old. But that's all part of trying new things, right? Baking can sometimes seem the easier side of cooking...when the big people are doing the hard stuff. Read this blog to see how far someone can come with cooking if they set their mind to it. Hoist the main sail! And man the spatula! We're setting sail! So join me and my crew, as we embark on The Voyage for Food!

Hey everyone!

Sorry about my absence...I haven't gotten the chance to write recently, hope to have another entry soon.   Not much else I can say about the last few weeks, except that another team came down in early August, and that was fun.

Later,
Dane

Welcome everyone!  As you may have guessed, this blog is mainly about baking, cooking, and the like.  The asterisks at the bottom of my following posts will be food ratings(meant to be stars), stating how I like the recipe.  By the way, hi mom!
