Inside the Oven

ShoeBox Oven is tiny, if not completely imaginary. Enjoying the bittersweetness of life, my oven and I discover and bake pastries from real and imagined places.

Not having ever left the states, I've relied on my imagination, my Oven's inventiveness and a shoebox of recipes I've collected since childhood to come up with new pastries. The more me and my tiny Oven explored, the more I realized that a little imagination with sugar and flour can make a little idea real, if not sweet.

Support and Love: My family and friends, Peace Corps (DC headquarters), all of Arlington, Courthouse Farmer's Market, Erin, Wilma, Rina, Kelly and Brandon, Janet (the ex-Girl Scout), Gabby, Zuraidah, DonRockwell.com,
and especially Michael Landrum (without his oven there would be no Oven), and Chef Ricky (who is the coolest chef I know and my homie from North Carolina). And a special love goes to my family at BRU—HU love for life!

mySpace: ShoeBox Oven (because the Oven is prone to fads and trendiness from time-to-time).

FaceBook: Krishna Brown (because I like making new friends).
