Continue ReadingHave you seen my apple pie video? I had a semi-disaster in the kitchen. The dough was just too soft, it was stuck on the paper and i was mid recipe but.. it all worked in the end.The video is the proof that what you see on social media is not the whole picture but it does push me to work harder, to pick myself up and to keep moving forward.
