I am nervous about my first attempt at choux pastry this evening.... I am not a baker, I prefer to cook. I don't really follow recipes so this makes baking awkward for me... I have been told that I make a beautiful lavender cake and magnificient ginger cake but these are cakes that I enjoy making. But tonight I am venturing into unchartered pastry territory. I do enjoy making pastry dishes, especially quiche, and I love french cooking techniques and recipes so I will be following my current favourite cookery books recipe 'The Little Paris Kitchen'. Of course when Minnie the Cat and I run away to Paris we will be trained in french cookery, but for now I will improvise with the books I have at my disposal x
I am starting to realise that life isn't just about the things you fill it with. But that doesn't mean I don't still love these beautiful things. I am very lucky to have learnt the things I know about Vintage so if you want to know anything about any decade of Vintage Attire and Homeware please just ask. I specialise in 1920's through to the 1990's. Fashion is everchanging but grounded in the basic principle that we use it to express our individuality and personality.
