The Comfort of Chicken
In a pretty regular pattern for me now, I get inspired by Vocal Challenges and then proceed to miss the deadline, haha. Sometimes, I’ll only have an idea with no words actually written, but I had actually started a draft for the “Taste of Home” Challenge.

The Oldest Dessert
We all love the sound “chocolate” that escapes our hungry mouths. You hear that and ears perk up like they’ve been waiting to hear that sound. Chocolate comes from all the way back to the Aztecs where cocoa beans were treated like money. Then, as Europe evolved it was brought to the rich and royals and it was a very bitter drink that only the wealthy could afford to buy. Then, chocolate started to change it got sweeter and sweeter and we are able to get it in solid form and enjoy it in a variety of flavours and ways. But it became sweet and delicious. When you want to feel good about your day you just need chocolate and it immediately gets better. So here’s a delicious chocolate cake recipe. However, this is the selfish version of a chocolate cake why? Because it serves one person as this is a personal mug cake that you can make in your very own microwave. A chocolate mug cake is a quick, single-serving dessert that's both indulgent and easy to make. Typically prepared in a microwave, it combines a few simple ingredients like flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, milk, and oil or butter. In just a few minutes, you have a rich, warm, and fudgy cake that’s perfect for satisfying a sudden sweet craving. Many variations also include add-ins like chocolate chips or a scoop of ice cream on top. The beauty of a chocolate mug cake lies in its simplicity and convenience, allowing you to enjoy a homemade treat with minimal effort and clean-up. That’s why I love it so much it’s great if you want to avoid making a mess and don’t want to spend time cleaning.

Memories of Baklava
My first memory of eating Greek food was during a childhood family road trip through California, at a Daphne franchise location in San Diego. The clear blue summer skies made for ideal outdoor dining weather. There was slow, vaguely operatic vocal music playing in the background. Every bite of golden rice pilaf and zesty Greek salad felt like I had been transported across time and space to an bucholic Ancient Greek meadow. For dessert, we ordered a piece of their baklava, which was refrigerated and wrapped in a cupcake wrapper. The smell of buttery, flaky pastry dough mixed with honey syrup and chopped nuts cemented my memory of Greek food. I've been fascinated with Greek and Mediterranean food ever since.

Kraft Dinner, America's Boxed Child
An American describing their culture is like an adolescent writing their autobiography. The themes come from older family members and teachers, leaving little room for originality. American cuisine illustrates this—our main dishes, such as pizza, seem to be borrowed from our progenitors in Europe and elsewhere.

Mama's Rye Pies.
Memories I remember of my childhood days are filled with mums home cooking, smelling the aromas wafting from the kitchen. We would wake up in the morning and discover the delights for our tummy for that day. It was so wonderful, especially on a Sunday morning when we didn't have be anywhere, like school. It was the 1970's and we lived near Sydney. My dad, mum and I immigrated from Finland in 1968, I was nearly two years old then.
