You might have noticed that Cooking Inside the Lines has been a little quieter than normal and although there are a few good reasons for this, the main one is that the lambiest of the lambs, aka my niece Alex, just joined me in my humble abode here in Austin. Alex is getting settled in our fair city and searching for a cooking or pastry job (ahem, ahem). She just graduated from Le Cordon Bleu in Dallas and is a passionate chef especially with a love for pastry.
I’m so excited to have her here and although she is now a trained chef she will be here with me testing and tasting recipes so you don’t have to. Welcome to Austin Alex and we will be testing recipes this week so stay tuned!
OH HELL YES!!! Alex, I never thought it was possible, but you make the toque look hot!
Sweet photo with the toilet in the background!
Congratulations Alex!
Now do PLEASE have Emily take another picture of you, possibly in a kitchen and NOT in a public toilet! (Or possibly carefully crop the bowl and toilet paper out of this one?)
That Cordon deserves as much!
The discussions we had about the toilet were endless but we decided to post as is. I agree with Alex she makes the toque look good!
This also just proves that Alex can cook ANYWHERE.
Congratulations Alex. Looking forward to all of your cooking escapades.
You two are crazy! Putting a picture up of her in a bathroom! Alex…"I can make the best darn toilet water in Texas!!" LOL!
Haha ditto on the toilet action, but Alex you are so sassy and I can't wait to finally meet you! Great big hugs
Adorable photo. I didn't even notice the toilet in the pic until Emily told me about all the comments. Hilarious!
