Panna's Blog About the Blog
Hi everybody! I’m Panna. I’m just a regular girl from Hungary who likes spending time in the kitchen with some good music and of course alone. Yeah to be alone while I cook is an important thing because I don't really like others to tell me if I do something wrong or just not the way they would do instead of me.
I can't remember when was the first time I was in the kitchen because that was a long time ago but I remember my first cake. I made it for my mom on a mother's day with a whole lunch. Making lunch wasn't a new thing for me but the cake was. It was a big success in my family just like the other things. I think that was the time when I really started spending more time with this hobby and since then I totally fell in love with it.
I learned a lot from my family (from my dad and my grandparents mostly) and the internet was a good teacher too so I learned somethings on my own also. But still, I have to learn more and more and get better. I don't actually know what my plans are with cooking in the future but I know one thing I will always cook for fun but I can also imagine myself as an owner of a confectionary but it's still far away.
To be honest, there were times when I took a break because I just didn't feel like being in the kitchen would be the best thing to do or just didn't have enough time. But luckily I never stopped it permanently.
I think cooking is a great hobby but for me, it's not just that. It helps me when I'm frustrated or stressed because with little things and complicated recipes I can distract my thoughts and not thinking about my problems. I can also try out creative things and make for example figures or just beautiful decorations. And I also love to impress others with my cooking skills.
At last, let me talk about the present a little bit. Nowadays with this quarantine time and everything I have more free time which I want to spend smartly. I can make my own schedule so I have a lot of time for trying out new ideas, recipes or even creating some. It's very good because these times can be stressful because of the new school system and being with the family, having some arguments, etc. So I decided to start cooking on a weekly basis and write down every recipe I made. And then my dad had this idea that why don't I make a blog of these so now here it is….
