Long time no see, my friends! It has been a while since my last post. I have been spending my time mostly with work – covid style of course. It seems like preparations for the next thing never ends. Don’t get me wrong, I am extremely grateful that our business is doing ok with everythingRead more
Tahini Coffee Cheesecake
Long time no see, friends! It has been a long time since I have written a post! In the past two months or so, I took a chocolate course which had classes two days a week, four hours each day. I would go on my days off, and by the last week (mind you, theRead more
