Where it all started...

Why did I suddenly get interested in cooking?

Simply because I got this recipe book from my mum for Christmas that I decided I wanted to fill out with interesting recipes!

To me, there is nothing more tempting than fresh, colourful fruit!

Stine's Eatables

I have always been the most terrible cook I know - which means that I learned how to boil potatoes last year (at age 21), that I have yet to make a proper meal for myself (cereal will do) and that I didn't know at the age of 15 that you are not supposed to put the cardboard under the frozen pizza into the oven... (Yes, I have tried!)

However, the last couple of weeks I have started my "journey on becoming a better cook" and surprisingly it has been incredibly fun! So to challenge myself (and after having watched the Julie&Julia movie) I decided to make a FOOD BLOG (who would have thought???) where I try to make 5 recipes EVERY week. I will take pictures of the results (which will probably give you some good laughs) so that you can judge whether I have been successful or not...

This is where it will all happen:

SO - welcome to Stine's (hopefully) eatables! Bon appétit!
