Birthdays are significantly different and all together more meaningful than anytime I can remember. Birthday’s are celebrated through FaceTime or Zoom in lieu of big parties with friends & family. One thing still remains the same, the joy a homemade cake and singing Happy Birthday can bring a smile to a child’s face. For tonight’s episode of the Coronavirus Cooking Diaries, I do more than cook. Through photos and writing I am trying to share and help document these unprecedented times. The process I hope is keeping me grounded and sane and maybe entertaining. I have always felt the most comfortable in a kitchen, whether it be mine or someone else’s. I am good at lots of things, can do almost anything but I know I truly enjoy; cooking, taking pictures and telling stories. Telling stories either through those photos, writing or most enjoyable, oral story telling are all art forms. Story telling goes back centuries and is an ancient and intimate tradition which creates a bond between the storyteller and their audience. The storyteller reveals intimate details of themselves through the telling of the story. The listeners in turn allow themselves to be enraptured by the words and emotions being shared with them and through the potential shared experiences they may have in common. I also tell stories through food and in this story my son wanted a special cake for his birthday. He requested a Vanilla cake with a Chocolate Ganache filling, Vanilla Buttercream frosting and a Minecraft design. I know nothing about Minecraft but he seemed pleased. I also ran out of time and could’t make the chocolate ganache filling. The design and flavor of the cake accomplished the goal. I think his smile speaks for itself. Making people happy through food gives me pleasure and I will continue to do so until I take my last breath.

Happy Monday!👋👋 This has got to be best tasting Jackfruit Coconut with Walnut Bundt cake! I’ve always enjoyed eating ripened Jackfruit but never baked! Pairing Jackfruit with coconut and walnut is surprisingly delicious! I can taste the coconut and the sweetness of the ripened Jackfruits! 😋👍😍 #jackfruitrecipes #jackfruit #bakingfromscratch #artofbaking #mamabakes #deliciousfood #bundtcake #cookinghands #tropicalfruits https://www.instagram.com/p/CU6PHOfoH2V/?utm_medium=tumblr
