I was inspired by one of my favorite blogs, Brown Eyed Baker, to create my list of the top 100 things I want to make but haven’t yet tackled. A lot of these things are recipes I’ve found too difficult to attempt in the past, but now that I’m graduating and turning over a new leaf, I think it’s time to turn things up a notch in the kitchen! So with the creation of this list comes a commitment to doing bigger and better things.
I’ve been working on this list for a while, though it’s still not quite 100 things. So I will share what I have so far, and update it when I think of more!
