Apologies

 I'm sorry for being away for a while. Life got the best of me and I have surgery tomorrow. Despite being only 25, my genetic condition has caused rapid and serious deterioration of my teeth, and I'm in the process of getting dentures. In March I had all molars on my left side removed, tomorrow its all the molars on my right. I'm going to have to go about 3 months living on nothing but mushy foods and liquids since I'll have nothing to chew with after tomorrow until I get my front teeth removed, and get my new teeth the same day. Lots of mashed potatoes, overly steamed veggies, pudding, apple sauce, and broth in my future lol.

A Bit About Me

 My Introduction:  Hello everyone and welcome to my blog. I'm Ash, and this is my first attempt at a blog, so please excuse any errors, and give me tips if you happen to have any! Here's a little about myself.  I'm based in the Midwest in the USA, I'm 25 years old currently, and disabled. My passions include baking, crafting, and advocating for parents with disabilities. I enjoy educating others about my own disability. My formal education is in Medical Billing and Coding, but my truest passion is baking. I baked for the first time with my dad when I was five, for the first time with him simply in the room at 8, completely by myself at 10, and developed my first recipe at 14.  I started my crafting obsession at 12, learning to crochet from a teacher in my middle school. From there, I've expanded. I do crochet, cross stitch, bead jewelry making, and diamond art. Fun thing is, when it comes to crochet, I cannot, for the life of me, read a pattern!  This blog will ...

Iced Cinnamon Brown Sugar Chai Latte (with oat milk!)

 So, small blurb about why I'm obsessed with this! My Sister-in-law, and best friend, introduced me to iced chai from Starbucks, and it was good, sure, but this past month, at a Ren Faire, we had the absolute best chai ever! I wanted to try to recreate it! This recipe makes two quarts to take into account the inevitable chai addiction that will follow, lol! But, if you don't want to make that much, you can halve or even quarter it! Ingredients:  Chai concentrate: 8 Cups water  8 bags regular chai (I use Twinning's)  8 bags vanilla chai (I use Bigelow)  1 cup brown sugar (or more if you need it)  Brown sugar syrup:  2 cups water 2 cups brown sugar Directions:  Bring water to a simmer on the stove top, then remove from heat. Add all tea bags and allow to steep for 5-7 minutes off the heat.  Remove tea bags and return the pot to the burner on medium heat, add your brown sugar (1 cup or to taste) and stir until the sugar has completely dissolved....

Coming Soon

 So, I'm constantly playing with and adjusting recipes to come up with something new and fun. Coming soon are two recipes that some would say are better for fall, but I say are good for any time! I'm still getting my ratios and everything right, at the moment I think my wet to dry ratio is off, the dough is a sticky mess! If you're a salted caramel lover, these recipes will be perfect for you!  Side note I just put on new press-on nails (I love them lol) and they're longer than I anticipated so typing is a learning curve! I keep hitting random keys instead of the one I want lol. I'm glad I'm typing on my husband's PC instead of my laptop, since he has a mechanical keyboard with raised keys. Typing on a flat laptop keyboard would be a nightmare right now!  I hope to have my new recipes out soon, when they come out, let me know if you made it, if you liked or disliked it, and if you changed anything, what you changed and how it turned out!  Thanks lovelies! -A...
