Greetings, dear readers! From day to day, I am one of the many souls in society named Jess. On this site and within the gravitational pull of my kitchen, however, I become Zazzy: the intrepid, ridiculous cook who could become the next Gordan Ramsey if only a rodent would take pity on her and crawl into her chef’s hat.

Needless to say, I am a lover of food. I am also a lover of cross-stitch, reading and Burt’s Bees lip balm, all of which have likely inspired my spirit to return to the kitchen and make some educational messes. If you hate cooking, this site isn’t for you. If you hate me, you’re lying to yourself, but will likewise not receive much joy from my ramblings. This blog is my personal quest to ameliorate mes compétences culinaires and to bring some joy to the daily yet essential task of preparing nutrients for my human form, so if you’re along for the ride, welcome!
