    I’ve been teaching myself to make cheesecake.

    I’m generally proficient in the kitchen but never bake or work with sweet things.

    I’ve started with mini cheesecake and after a couple failed attempts, they’ve come out so good as to share with coworkers who tell me to make more.

    One of these days, I’ll graduate to full sized.

    Bonus: I’ve learned to make lemon curd from scratch. Did lime curd as an experiment once I got the lemon down.

    I enjoy kitchen undertakings that are far beyond my capabilities and actually enjoy the initial fuckups because they represent progress toward getting it right.

    I also tend to listen to a mix of eighties alternative and sixties jazz while I’m doing it because why wouldn’t those two genres go together?
