Work Imitates Creativity

Starting this social media food journey has been exciting. It feels great to create content around food and not my personal life. Meaning the focal point isn’t about me, but the food that I’m cooking.

Yesterday, I decided to cook up some delicious vegan pancakes for breakfast. It was a recipe I found a year ago. The first time I tried to make this dish, the pancakes ended up being very gummy and elastic which isn’t what you want. I remember feeling so defeated so I avoided trying to make them for a while. 

Yesterday, however, was my second attempt and I have to say, I produced the fluffiest pancakes I’ve ever made in my life. And I have my freelancing work to thank for this tremendous growth.

For the past few months, I’ve been writing articles for a food software company called Morsel. One of the topics that I’ve written about extensively is pancakes.

In this process, I’ve learned so many tips, tricks, and insights about pancakes, which have contributed to the delicious batch I made yesterday.

It’s a good sign when you’re inspired by your job.
