A, B, C, D, Eat

I've always had impeccable timing...NOT!

This is probably one of the worst times to start a food blog for the following reasons:

1) My exams are going to start in less than a week and I am probably better off without any type of distraction

2) I'm going to be leaving the country in a month for at least half a year and I can't imagine having continuous access to a well-equipped kitchen

3) My laptop just broke...

Nevertheless, obstacles create challenges and challenges are FUN!

I have a medium-size collection of cook books. I love them because they have beautiful pictures and they are fun to flip through on a rainy day (or when your laptop breaks). The thing is I spend more time reading the recipes than actually putting them to use. I have always loved baking and sharing the results with my friends and family, but it can be difficult to find the time to do it. There is no way that I would ever be able to make all the recipes I have but I feel that I owe it to the books to at least try out a few from each of them.

So, here is the idea:

My books are going to be put into storage soon but I recently had a look through all them. In order to help narrow down my choices, I have selected 26 recipes that all start with the different letters of the alphabet (I even have one for 'x'...sort of). I will not be able to make all of them before I leave so hopefully I will meet some people overseas who will let me make use of their kitchens. Let's see how it goes!
