Hello Anecdote and Apple Core Readers. Monet and I have been married for just about a year now (May 9th). I thought that this event warranted me hacking into her blog so I could write an unsolicited guest post celebrating an amazing part of our life (Happy 1st Anniversary, My Love).
This year has been an eventful one that has brought us much change. We have lived in four different cities in our first year of marriage and in each of those cities we lived under very different circumstances, our kitchens varying greatly. We started off our married life in a kitchen full of boxes as we prepared for our move Eastward. In Philadelphia we lived in a wheelchair accessible dorm room, bringing in a mini-fridge and a rice cooker as our only means for food preparation (we also had access to the Temple University cafeteria, yuk!). Baltimore’s kitchen (pictured, we never once used the microwave) was too narrow for two of us to be in it at once, but this did not dissuade the colony of roaches from living behind our refrigerator. In Colorado Springs we are back to a kitchen barely small enough to house a third of the wares that Monet makes magic with, but still she is not deterred.

As Monet’s husband (apprentice in each one of our kitchens) I have gained much knowledge about baking and know first hand her talent. I am very happy that she has an ever-expanding audience with whom she can share the joy she finds in baking. I just wish you all could taste the stuff. All of it is just as good as it looks on these pages.
