One year ago, I was in a cast. I was confined to my apartment. I could not work, I could not drive. I knew I would be in this cast for a while, it ended up being 2 months.

I needed to keep myself entertained. I made the decision to go back into food blogging. Cooking was, after all, a passion of mine. Plus, let’s be honest I was dating that Persian guy and was trying to impress him, especially since he lived in PA and I was here in Cleveland, so deep down I thought he is impressed by some yummy photos.

Well, that relationship ended. However, this blog didn’t. Here I am, 1 year later. It really has grown, I am about to hit 3000 likes on Facebook.

I am in the #SundaySupper movement.  I launched Olive and Grapevine, a food blogger e-zine. I am in the Culinary Content for the Daily Meal. I have worked with several alcohol companies to develop recipes with. I have been featured on Foodista, Simple Dish, and Pinch of Sugar.

It really is amazing to me, every day I am looking for ways to improve this recipe blog. When I was trying to think what I could do for this special recipe post. Then I decided I want to redo my very first recipe post, the Garlic Herb Syrian bread.

I did a twist on it, this recipe post would just be a normal Syrian Bread.

When I first started I was using my iPhone to do all the photos. Slowly I have been, and still am, learning food photo techniques. This is something I put together to show how much I have grown in one year in terms of photography:

That is the original photo of the Syrian Bread is on the left and the one I did now. Amazing right? I still have ways to go, but I am very proud of myself. I talk too much on here about change being good.

This photo shows how yes, change is good, I could stick in my ways and continued doing photos and editing on my iPhone. I wanted to change and wanted to improve myself. So I took the time to learn, change the way I was doing photos.

Plus, as this year gone on, I, myself have changed. Many know I came to realize I needed to get rid my past. I was unable to move to new surroundings so been doing a “Starting over new in an old apartment.”

I got rid the furniture that I had in my marriage, it was the last thing tied to that life and was just a reminder of pain for me. Now got new furniture and my luck has been changing since I let go that past. My love life hasn’t changed, but I feel more confident now that got a new perspective on life that too will change as well.

As part my celebration in my 1 year anniversary of Seduction in the Kitchen, and also following my advice that change is good. I made the decision to launch a YouTube channel. Of course, I did this recipe, or a version of it, as the first video. I want to do a weekly video recipe of some the older recipe posts. Plus I want to have fun doing it, but like my photography, I got to learn it, so as time goes on the editing, filming will get better.

Hi, can we make the bread without a bread maker?

Hi yes you can. If you have a KitchenAid mixer it works well to mix it up. In a large mixing bowl combine the yeast and water. Allow it to sit for 7-10 minutes, or until frothy. 2. Add the sugar, salt, and oil to the yeast mixture. Then add the flour gradually mixing with a strong spatula or wooden spoon. 3. Pour the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes. Coat your mixing bowl with a light brush or spray of oil. Place the dough in the bowl, and cover it with a tea towel. Allow the dough to rise until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 - 2 hours. 4. Punch your dough down, and pour in onto a very lightly floured surface. Knead it a couple of times to get the bubbles out. Cut the dough into quarters, and roll each quarter into an 8-10ish inch circle.
