From website to blog
Hello everyone,
Today I'm inaugurating the cooking-ez.com "blog". The idea is to have a space for discussion open to everone, but not necessarily linked to a particular recipe or page.
I hope the posts will be sufficiently interesting that you'll enjoy reading and discussing them.
The main theme will be cooking of course - it's my thing - but we can wander off the beaten track to tackle a wider range of subjects.
I hope to keep to the tone and feel of the site, but you can judge the content for yourself.
See you soon on these pages.
JH

Who's making the croissants?
When you look at a bakery from the outside, you naturally think that in the bakery, the bakers make the bread, and in the laboratory, the pastry chefs make the cakes.
