"I was playing around with a chocolate cake recipe, when I decided to try to make it vegan...I was very impressed and so were the people who ate it! I will post pictures next time I make it! Note: The flour and sugar do not have to be unbleached, I just do that because it sounds healthier to me :]"

Hey everyone! I'm a sophomore in high school, baking is my absolute passion. I can't get enough of it. Christmas is my favorite holiday because I get to make food for everyone. I guess I get that from my mom. She died when I was 10 of cervical cancer. I am a vegetarian. I am fairly well traveled for my age, having been to every state in America. Texas has the best Mexican food I have ever tasted and I think California cheese is better than Wisconsin cheese. Alaska has the best fish but Maine doesn't have the best lobster (I tried those before I became vegetarian). I have worked at a bakery (not family owned) for 3 1/2 years and I love it. I am particularly fond of this website. It allows me to be the chef I am rather than the academically correct girl everyone expects be to be. I hope you enjoy my recipes!
