Who knew that my sister Sophie could whip up bakery quality desserts? This past summer, Sophie took up a new hobby: baking! She spent time trying out new recipes at home with her cousins, and loved it so much that she signed up for a Sur La Table baking class at the end of the…

Crazy in the Cafeteria
Man, these first days in 6th grade at my new school, The Woodside Priory, have been crazy! And guess what, not just crazy in class, crazy in the Cafeteria! That’s right! I have been thinking about this for at least a couple of months ever since I got accepted into my new school. But hey,…
The “Glue” in Salad
Before I say anything, school is here (for me, at least)!!! Expect a post on cafeteria food because I know it will be delicious. Why was the girl embarrassed when she opened the fridge, because she saw the salad dressing. Pretty good huh? Just a few days ago, when my mom prepared a feast of…
Mustard’s In The House
Kids my age aren’t that into mustard… I don’t know what changed my mind about mustard, but this past week I have been eating and savoring this spicy condiment every meal. In the last 24 hours, I’ve had mustard and sauerkraut as a mini dinner, and eggs, avocado, and mustard for breakfast. Prior to this, I…
From Food To Fun
Man, I didn’t know how fun it could be put together a 1,000 piece food puzzle… One afternoon in Hawaii, I was looking for my unfinished Lego when I stumbled across this detailed donut puzzle. I have done these types of puzzles before, but not in a long time. Intrigued, I pulled it out and…
You Might as Well Eat an Ice Cream Sundae for Breakfast
Before I say anything, ALOHA! I’m back in Hawaii! This post isn’t about food in Hawaii, but you can expect my next to be about some yummy dinner my grandmother cooked up a couple of days ago. You might be wondering why the title says, “Eat ice cream sundaes for breakfast!” Well, here’s my explanation……
Is It Just Me Or Am I Noticing Things?
Now that I am back from my trip in Europe (Prague, Amsterdam, Vienna, Salzburg, and Budapest), I thought of some food related things that really stood out to me in these five cities. Some of these observations are soon-to-be habits that I want to develop at home, but others are just basic parts of European…
The Facts Behind Cheese
It’s so bitter sweet! I am at the last stop on my 20 day vacation in Europe: Amsterdam. Now, before I get into the food, I want to say that the capital of the Netherlands is probably one of the most diverse cities I have visited. There are almost as many canals in Amsterdam as…
Seriously, Ramen…………In Czech Republic?
“Ok everyone, where do you want to go for dinner tonight?” I say. “How about ramen?” replies my cousin Christina (CC), a fan of Asian food. “But, maybe we should try something more Czech-ish. I mean, we’ve already had ramen twice and Vietnamese cuisine once,” I try to explain. “We should still get ramen,” CC…
Great Market Hall Has It All
Hello from Europe! Vienna, Austria to be exact. A few days ago (in Hungary), I visited this amazing destination along the Danube River. This location just so happened to be the well known supermarket known as Great Market Hall. I know I gave a lot of kudos to the Borough Market in London, but after…
