Why I love to bake

Hello. Right now I’m explaining why I like food. And my specialty in cooking.

I’ve grown up with so many recipes with pancakes that it has become part of my life’s tradition. Along with bacon. I’m so sorry pigs!

Food is my favourite thing along with writing and reading, and just living life and studying what Mother Nature and the other things that give us life. Like the sky, the sea and the ground. Don’t forget the atmosphere and space. Although we are the only living things in the galaxies. 

What became inspiring to me was when I watched Chef and saw myself whisking the milk and eggs into a beautiful throffy color. Well, what was inspiring about Chef was that Carl Casper had faith in his food and that he chose the food truck business then restaurant chef. And when he was ready to have it, he was calm and ready for the responsibility. I think it’s the stress to make your customers happy that makes me think “I’ll start out as a noob, then see what comes my way”.

Anyway, today me and my Sous-Chefs and Line Chef made the second special batch in my life of Olivia’s Fluffy Pancakes. My grandma, Yoshie Hattori, my second Sous-Chef and who I call Baba, she hadn’t tasted the pancakes, (with extra cinnamon this time!), so I was ready to surprise her with delicious taste. I prepped a little display that had an empty wine bottle, some cutlery and a fancy cup. The plate was with blue flowers and Baba folded the crane— or swan— and we were ready.

She sat down and poured some maple syrup on. She had chosen a blueberry one. Good. I desperately wished she would like it. She ate it.

She shook her head. For a second, I thought she didn’t like it. Then, she said “It’s terrific!”

I was so happy. My whisking luck worked!

So, I hope to see you in my later articles for Olivia’s Fun Food Blog. Maybe you could call me Via Mei in the comments?
