My blogs

Gender	Female
Location	Victoria, BC, Canada
Introduction	My blog is a way for me to document my wacky adventures and misadventures in my tiny Victoria kitchen. It talks about my curry obsession, self confessed cookbook addiction, adventures and misadventures plus little bits of life thrown in. Most of all it is about my spiraling descend into psychotic breakdown as I teach myself how to cook while taking photos of my creations and writing about all of it.
