I share my thoughts and observations about my life.
One of the coolest lessons I've learned through my baking challenges has been that you can easily make items at home that you have bought in stores for most of your life. From hamburger buns and English muffins to pop tarts and chocolate eclairs, I have enjoyed the process as well as the end result... Continue Reading →
For my February baking challenge, I wanted to make a fun, delicate treat for Valentines Day and retry a technique that I didn't master when I originally attempted it - making jam from scratch. The recipe that met that criteria was Linzer cookies with raspberry jam. I fused two different blog posts for my kitchen... Continue Reading →
July 29th, 2021 marked 4 years in New York City. Each year has been brought so many unique experiences that I thought would be fun to reflect on. This may not be the most interesting blog post but I love a good list and reminiscing on my time so far in the greatest city in... Continue Reading →

Last Thursday, 6/3/21, I turned 31 years old. It's kind of funny how the mindset changes as you go through your 20's.

During the month of March, I think about my grandmother, Catherine Elizabeth Schein (Bradley was her maiden name). Her grandparents were both... Continue Reading →
YAAY!... For another blog post!!! So far, my resolution to post at least once per month in 2016 has not been given up! Anyways, Happy Belated Valentines Day (my internet was acting up so I couldn’t post on the actual day like I was hoping to)! Often times I will get a little depressed on... Continue Reading →
The past year has flown by and this poor blog of mine hasn't been taken care of at all. I hope to change that in 2016. It's one of my monthly resolutions...but more on that in a little bit. First, I want to go over how 2015 went. I did quite poorly on two of... Continue Reading →
TWENTY-FIVE YEARS BY THE NUMBERS On June 3, 2015 at 8:30am, I turned 25 years old. I have now been alive for a quarter of a century. I believe that its natural to reflect upon all that I’ve experienced in my life at every birthday. My friend Kaitlyn also posted an awesome blog about the subject... Continue Reading →
