Hi! My name is Michele and I'm from the DMV. I enjoy baking/cooking thanks to my family. It is a form of expression- a way to tell someone "I care," "celebrate," or "sit, relax, breathe." I make soup for sick friends and cuss out sketchy apartment ovens when they don't bake lemon bars evenly. At the suggestion of a friend, I took up this food journal as a means of sharing my adventures and to try new recipes.
