I'm an American living in France these past 20+ years. I am a wife, mother, English teacher (in a French high school), vegetarian, big-time history buff, small-time whisky enthusiast, amateur baker, and expert procrastinator. When I'm not finding creative solutions to put things off that really shouldn't be, I can be found in my kitchen baking treats for my family. I used to bake using cake mixes and such, until I moved to France, where decent mixes are nowhere to be found (or cost a small fortune if you do find them). So if I wanted an American-style dessert, I had no choice but to make it from scratch using French ingredients. Yum! Baking quickly became my favorite hobby and I henceforth banned all mixes from my kitchen!
