Something witty.

Something witty. Food photographs/recipes are not my property unless specified. Sources have been documented where possible.


I'm a graphic design major, but I spend way too much time thinking about cake so I don't think that's really going to work as a long-term thing. I'm also between 1/3 and 1/2 black, but don't hold it against me like my ex-boyfriend's mother did. I suppose my ultimate goal is to either become a world-class patissiere or open my own bakery. This tumblr will serve as a portfolio/recipe drawer for me while I get started. Also personal and fandom blog. Can't be helped.

    I overuse exclamation points, not in my writing but in my internet correspondence. Mostly feedback. I know I’m doing it...
