Hello! Let’s eat!

November 11, 2019 by Alex

Welcome to Baker’s Theory! My name is Alex and I love to cook and bake. I have attempted to organize my on-going cooking pursuits here with you. I’ve never done a blog before, so bear with me as I work my way through the kinks with my best friend, Jim, who is my photographer, videographer and betrothed.

My love of all things food began with my Easy-Bake Oven. Blueberry muffins and brownies. Later I moved on to assembling Eggo Waffles with butter, slices of turkey, and provolone. Then it was Minute Rice with Campbell’s Cream of Chicken soup. By the time I was 13, inspired by Rachel Ray’s 30 Minute Meals and a Hershey’s Chocolate cookbook my grandmother gifted me, I commanded the stove unsupervised. Then I exploded a stick of butter in the microwave, back when butter was wrapped in aluminum foil.

I’ve come a long way since then, thankfully! With 15 solid years of cooking and baking experience, I’d like to share some things and theories I’ve learned through my kitchen trials. Here at Baker’s Theory I hope you will find instruction, inspiration, practical tips, and simplicity.

Wishing you cold milk and warm cookies!

Alex
