Bake. Eat. Blog.

Bake. Eat. Blog. "I can do that!" I have quietly whispered this to my bearded dragon Chango. "What I can do with all this time off?" Chango just sits on his log and basks under the heatlamp. Chango is a great listener and he loves to watch me and my fiance cook, bake, and dance in our kitchen. Our little kitchen is our club and restaurant all in one. It's the place where we can quietly sneak up on each other to snag a kiss or a grab!

Our kitchen is humble, we rent, and no there is no Kitchen Aid to be found in any of the cupboards. However, we do have a few old cookie sheets and one small loaf pan stacked on top of other baking pans inside the oven. Really...this is all we really need! "All you need is love..." and a few yummy baked goodies!

While I wait to hear back from possible employers, my fiance bakes his banana bread and I have been cooking up new dishes every few nights. Last week I baked an amazing chicken and rice casserole, but it was a miss when I made the chicken curry the net night. My adorable fiance dug in and ate this curry creation. While he ate, I couldn't even eat the stuff! I guess that's just like our love for each other. We just dig in, take a huge bite, no matter what!

Last night, Mark's Banana Boom Bread and tonight I'll be baking some smore's cookies which I have already seen on a few baking blogs already. I thought, what better way to start "Baking California Love"...with S'mores!
