Most of my friends spend their weekends partying at night and sleeping during the day. This doesn’t seem to be valid for me though. While I do party with them, I love to wake up early, grab my bike, go to the farmers market, rush back to my apartment and bake like crazy until it’s dark outside.

Trust me, my flatmates love me. On Monday, we celebrated autumn with yummy butternut squash muffins with a frosty top. On Tuesday, a spicy yet comforting black pepper and honey apple tart warmed our days. On Wednesday, I kept complaining about how boring it is to have a cold but still enjoyed a lovely honey, rosemary and gorgonzola loaf cake. On Thursday, we all went out to celebrate the launch of Beaujolais nouveau with some shallot and parsley small bread rolls, which I posted about on Friday. On Saturday, I shared a piece of my memories - and more importantly - some moist coconut balls that look like snow balls. On Sunday, well, I’m going to ask you a favour.

There isn’t one day during which I don’t receive emails from you guys - totally *heart* you by the way. Whether you’re just saying hi, asking questions about a specific recipe/ingredient/pastry, wondering how I learnt to take pictures… These make me happy. I just love to know I’ve helped or inspired you in some ways.
Now it’s your turn to inspire me.

Is there anything that you would like to see on this blog?

May it be a recipe - one you’re too scared to try or one you dearly love and would want to share, a topic - like Erin who’d like to hear more about my culinary endeavours in France or food photography… Actually, anything will do. Just tell me what makes you happy, what inspires you, what your fears are. This way, you’ll contribute to foodbeam and I’ll be able to give you some of the tips I’ve learnt either from experience, my internship or my classes.
I so can’t wait to see what you come up with! This is going to be great fun.
