So after quite some time I had a time to cook.. and after some time I thought that it would be cool to share the experience here since, well part of this blog should be dedicated to the food and cooking …
Well if you can call making chocolate bonbons, or attempting to do so, cooking… I am not sure… it is not baking… maybe sweet makeing would do.. who knows…
Anyways a friend of mine will be having a wedding soon and I promised o help her, to cook or rather bake somethins such as red velvet cupcakes or make chocolate bonbons, put them into little bags for the guests as a kind of gift or something.
Well actaully the bonbons were a kind of back up idea or plan, because it was near the exams and I was a little bit afraid that I will not have time to make the cupcakes later.. you know all the stress and fear of not getting through the exams early and quickly and all this stuff… and so I decided to make the bonbons ..
I know what zou are thinking.. “She was afraid of not being able to make the cupcakes and so she made bonbons before the exams? How does that make any sense? And were did she get the time to study for the exams if she was making chocolates??”
Well what can I say I am a super human while cooking I can look and read my notes or write essays, it is the superhuman ability of multitasking that everyone always talks about … Ehhh If only, reality is that during day I did what most students do before exams, study or write essays and during some evenings I did what most cooking enthusiasts do – cook.. well in my case heat the cream, melt the chocolate and let the cranberries soak in champagne ….
So the cooking here worked like de-stressing activity for me to clear my mind … and it was amazing to walk around with head in chocolate mist, and I swear that I could smell the chocolate even when I was not making the chcolates
