Welcome everybody to our blog!
As you can see for yourself, the blog is called 'TheCoolKitchen and More' because we love food and cooking but we also have many other interests concerning food production, sustainability, nature and crafting. All in all, this blog is really about a lifestyle, 'the good life' you could say, and we want to share our passions and our joys with as many people as possible and hopefully give you the inspiration and the know-how to start growing your own food, to make your own bread, to learn traditional crafts...and the list goes on.
And who are the people behind TheCoolKitchen? Hendrik is a graduate in Social Anthropology and has forever had a passion for cooking and eating, and more recently in growing and making food from scratch. In the last year he has been doing all kinds of food related work, and what a year of learning it's been! He worked on an organic farm, sold fresh produce on market stalls, helped in organic catering, worked in a restaurant and taught kids how to grow fruit and veg. It's been a very diverse but enriching experience!
A-C is an architecture student and has a natural talent for arts and crafts, and an incredible passion for old and beautiful buildings. She as well has always been interested in food and cooking, and also in growing veg and rearing animals. Like many kids she always wanted to live on a farm, and that dream is coming ever closer!
We started making video recipes in 2011, and it was very fun and very querky, but very sporadic too! Since 2012 we really want to develop TheCoolKitchen more, making regular cooking videos, exploring other food related subjects and documenting our journey of eating and making. That is also why we created this blog, to write about our experiences and to complement our videos, so that we can describe and eloberate where it wouldn't be suitable or possible on film. And then there is also our facebook page where you can find all our updates and our photos. It is really worthwhile having a look at all three sites.
We want to thank each and everyone of you for your support and the time you took to read and watch what we have to say!
Bon Appétit!
