| Morning mullets and coffee. |
You're probably wondering why I jumped Defunkt Gourmet and decided to start anew. Or maybe not. If you're willing to listen, keep on reading. If not, well... maybe you can come over and we can watch movies and bake some bread; maybe an Almodovar movie-a-thon; discuss the latest on horrible celebrity plastic surgery; or perhaps some bowling?
I started Defunkt Gourmet randomly, out-of-the-blue but mainly as a writing exercise. I seriously did not think much of it. And then things started going quite nicely, meeting exceptional people, learning so much more than I could have ever on my own. Lately, however, I've started questioning the Gourmet part of the name. Defunct is defined as "no longer in use, inactive." But I was never gourmet to begin with so how could I have become inactive in something I was never active in before?
Hmmm... I'm more of a comfort food kind of girl. So I thought I would start anew with an entirely new name that would suit my cooking style (if there is such a thing). I've decided on Chinese Baba as an homage to my mum who makes wicked-good Ukrainian pierogis. (I know - a Chinese woman making Ukrainian food!) My mum always made sure we had meals on the table and did it with love.
In between the foie gras, the caviar, the gourmet... we always want something comforting.
Thanks for stopping by. Are we still friends?
xoxo
