Like most people 2020 and the pandemic just leveled my plans; at first I tried to carry on as almost normal but I quickly realized that wouldn’t work. I took time to gather my thoughts and regroup as well as mind my health and keep clear of the virus. I obviously had a lot of time on my hands so I began to tinker, cook and blend. I found a love for tea blending and I started creating some delicious rubs to put on anything I could get my hands on to put into my new smoker (what a birthday gift!!). With help from my grandma I started my very own nuka for traditional Japanese pickling veggies; I made a some homemade mustard and chili sauces and even tried the sourdough bread craze. From all that I learned so much 1. I enjoy using traditional methods with modern flavors 2. One person can make a surprising number of things and 3. I cannot bake bread, oddly don’t have the patience for the process lol!
This year I started watching with my bestie and decided to start a cocktail project. I wanted to take to personality traits and dominant colors each Queen displayed and translate them with drink ingredients. As such my feed has shifted from primarily jam to other things; so I wanted to take a minute to share what’s going on with . Right now I’m taking a brief hiatus from online sales while I move kitchens and expand my product lines. I’m expanding into baking, teas, making spice blends and so much more.
Moving forward I’ll continue posting the themed cocktail recipes and I’ll work in other recipes as well. I’m also working on doing videos for Reels and TikTok, have themed days, do tutorials and show more of my process. I got an and I’m so excited to not have to bug my hubby to come film me cutting up onions or fold in egg whites 😂 Stay tuned for the next evolution of The Brown Eyed Girls Kitchen Co and thank you for your continued support!
