Puff pastry tart - tomatoes and burrata

This one was easy last minute dish and when Master S saw it he remarked - I have not even tasted it and I already like it 😊

Southern Caramel Cake

 I found this recipe on NYT Cooking. It is by Mellie Pear Tree.  https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1021870-southern-caramel-cake My changes were:  I used about 1.5 cups of sugar.

To be honest, I have never really enjoyed the day to day mundane cooking - it has often felt like a chore. But I do love food. I love eating - People eat to live, I live to eat. I love different kinds of flavors. I love food that is colorful. And I have always enjoyed baking or trying a new recipe. The extended lockdowns resulted in me cooking at home all the time. Interestingly though, I am quite enjoying the cooking this time around - maybe because there is more time, or there is more motivation. Anyway, this blog is mainly a vehicle to archive my recent experiences in the kitchen. Most are recipes that I have picked from somewhere. I might change a thing here or there - because sometimes I just don’t have an ingredient at hand ...
