    links & resources

    When it comes to baking and cooking, we're all constantly learning. And sometimes you need to keep referencing the same things over and over again until you remember them. Here are the links and resource pages I find myself visiting as I'm troubleshooting recipes, developing my skills, and thinking about how I talk and write about food.
