There hasn't been much work done on this journal since the last few weeks as I have ben busy preparing for WaiCon. I had baked so much food upcoming to waicon, my Popcorn flavoured macarons got reprised (Thank you Adriano Zumbo), Brioche, Walnut bread, Melon Pan, kaya and a lot of other things have been made for people to eat on Australia Day/my friend's birthday as well as during the convention itself. I was a part of running a store with some friends and I wanted to ensure that they had food to snack on throughout the day.
It was a wonderful albeit tiring experience and I'm looking forward to doing it again next year. Unfortunately I didn't take pictures of any of the food that I had made so there's nothing to show for all the work I have done in the past few weeks but there will be pictures and possibly recipes coming up in the next few entries for everyone so please look forward to that.
A great experience I had over the weekend however was somebody had noticed the macarons I had left our during the convention for people to snack on and I was hunted down and possibly befriended. That was kind of cool. :)
Anyway, I hope everyone's looking forward to this coming year and all the food related experimentation that I'm going to be doing. I've decided that if I'm going to be posting recipes on this website, it's going to have to follow 2 rules. If they're recipes that I learnt off friends/family or off the internet then I shall post them up here because they are freely sharable but if they're recipes that I learnt from a book that I have purchased then I will be directing people to purchase that book. I'm not going to be posting up those recipes.
I think that's pretty fair. And onwards on my journey towards culinary dreams. Recently I've been watching a lot of Top Chef. It's one of my favourite cooking series of all time!
