Welcome!

Hi everyone and welcome to Le Petit Chef! We have decided to start this blog for several reasons. After our 2008 trip to Paris, I acquired a serious interested in cooking and baking (mostly baking), while Chris has recently discovered his love of grilling. Recently, we've been emailing many photos of our meals and creations to family and friends and thought that this might be a better forum in which to share our culinary adventures. We'll cover everything from food we've made and restaurant outings, to fun kitchen gadgets and cookbooks we get along the way. Since we are primarily chemists by training we'll even give you some kitchen science lessons every now and then. Bon appetit!
