I spent my afternoon being creative in the kitchen today. I did attempt to video the process but that was an epic fail. I got some nice shots though.

I love creating new recipes and trying new flavours. I had some fresh mandarins given to me and really wanted to make something sweet out of them. They turned out to be pretty tasty for a new recipe.
