Tyla in a Bubble
So I was thinking about what could be my first post for this blog. It crossed my mind many times, what recipe to use, what product to make, and basically what to do. So I finally decided, my first post will be about me. This way everyone can get a sense of who I am and why I am doing something like this.
First of all, my name is Tyla. I go by nicknames such as Tball, Tytyboo (given to me in Elementary which evolved into my twitter name), and Tylenol (I know, that's my sister for you.)
I have one sister and she is my best friend. She is 4 years older then me and one of my main goals. I say this because she has celiac disease, anaphylactic to peanuts and nuts, intolerant to dairy and a vegetarian. Over the past 2 years, I have been able to perfect shortbread, butter tarts, and a trifle recipe where she can eat freely and doesn't have to worry about a thing.
I finished high school in 2007 and went straight to post secondary. I did this because I had one thing on my mind. That was to take my passion and turn it into a source of income.
If you haven't gathered yet, I love to bake. I love anything to do with baking, pastry, chocolate, and sugar. I love it so much that when someone comes up to me and asks me to bake for them, if its a batch of brownies or a 2 tiered cake, I will do it for next to nothing. This is also if I have the time. Although I have a diploma in Baking and Pastry Arts, I still consider myself inexperienced and always learning.
Last year I decided to come back to school for my business degree. This way I can understand all aspects when it comes to opening up my own bakery, my own Bed and Breakfast.
But that is basically me in a bubble and my main purpose on this blog is to post recipes that are of interest to me that will hopefully become an interest to you.
Sweet Dreams,
Tyla

Intro
Hello to anyone reading this post. My name is Raman and this is my very first time blogging. Like all of us who decided to join this “food group,” I love food. It is one of the best things out there. It is pretty easy to take interest in food since we literally cannot live without it.
As my name suggests I am from Punjabi decent and if you were to speak to any Punjabi you’d know how big a role food has in our lives. But that’s not always a good thing. As delicious our food usually is, most sweets and appetizers are deep fried and the preparation and cooking time can be very long depending on how much experience you have with cooking. I guess that’s what makes them so good.
This is something my mom made over the weekend. The main ingredients are chick peas, potatoes, tomatoes, onions and various spices. If anyone’s interested in trying this out, let me know I can get you the recipe.
Raman :)
