Author: HappyEnki
I hope I come across as an interesting person. I love reiki and other forms of healing, cooking, crystals and baking. I am constantly working on crafts and projects such as painting, felting, and knitting. I feel like I am still looking for my happiness in life. My life purpose. Isn't that what we are all looking for. I don't mean happiness as friends and loved ones since I have plenty of those. I mean career wise. You can see my journey through my blog as I explore my culinary passion.

Sprinkle Sugar Cookies
I wanted to try something different that I thought would be fun for little C to try. But these sprinkles are the glitter of the baking world…. so it might not be the best choice for a toddler. The recipe I used was quite simple. A basic sugar cookie. The fun part was rolling the…
Savory Oatmeal
Growing up, I always enjoyed congee for breakfast. My grandpa’s congee was the best. It would take hours of him simmering the pot of rice. Occasionally, my grandpa would make an oatmeal version which I am calling savory oatmeal. It has the flavors of congee but is super quick to make. I think this dish…

Water Pie

Sardines and Condensed Milk
Yes you read this right. Sardines and Condensed Milk. Not sure why I needed to try this but I did. This was the video inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmgl-HhIQUk This is a simple recipe as it was more about weird food combinations and not the recipe it self. I don’t think I executed the recipe well as I…
Rice Paper Chips
Ok so you probably have seen a bunch of recipes like this floating around the internet. Even though I know it obviously works (since this is exactly like shrimp chips that you can find in Asian markets), I still wanted to try it out and see how easy it actually was. Also I was bored…
Garlic Confit and Garlic Oil
This recipe is one that I will be making regularly. It can be used in lots of recipes and added to enhance dishes. The best part is… it is super easy to make. What you need is some olive oil and garlic. Place your garlic cloves in a small sauce pan and cover with oil….
Spaghetti Ramen
This is a simple hack if you are having a hard time finding ramen in your local grocery store. All you need it spaghetti and baking soda. Boil 5 cups of water and add to it 3 tsp of baking soda. The water will bubble because of the chemical reaction. Boil the pasta in this…
Panetonne French Toast Casserole
Every Christmas we get a Panetonne, either as a gift or buy one on our own. Every year I love it but also realize how huge the loaf is. If you have never had a Panetonne, it is an Italian cake filled with citrus and raisins. It is buttery and soft and yummy. Usually I…
