My name is Claudia. That’s me with the flute. Confused yet?
I’m a classically trained, professional musician. When I’m not off fluting, I’m usually cooking up something crazy in the kitchen. First rule of working with musicians — they CAN be bribed with food.
I began cooking as a kid when my mean (not really) parents REFUSED to buy me an Easybake Oven. My dad (who really is quite a lovely and kind person in spite of his REFUSAL to buy me an Easybake Oven) asked, “What kind of cake do you think you can bake with a lightbulb?”
Good question.
So, my dad said that I could use the big, kitchen oven….And we’re off! Cakes were my specialty for the first few years. Everyone, and I mean everyone, cats included got “spectacularly” decorated cakes for their birthdays. It was especially touching when I made humans and cats share the same decorative space on the cakes. “Happy Birthday Jean and Smokey!”
Years later, still no Easybake Oven, but I’m still cooking.
Only now I bake cakes full of rum.
