Welcome to the Periodic Kitchen! Our names are Christian and Brittaney, and we live in Pasadena, CA. We came here almost two years ago, after college, from Oregon (Sco' Ducks!) where we both got degrees in the sciences. Brittaney is a chemist for a medical device company and Christian is a researcher at local university. Although we both love our jobs, we like to leave work behind when we get home! Cooking and baking have been passions for both of us even before we met, and it's one of the activities that brought us together as a couple. Christian tends to think himself the chef and Brittaney his sous chef, but the power struggle in the trenches can often be palpable. This playful competition is often hard to have in our small studio apartment, but we do our best to whip up tasty, innovative, and even sometimes healthy dishes together that fit our busy lifestyles.
The kitchen is our personal lab and we always go in with experiments in mind. We have even been known to keep a notebook with our data tables and ideas. We always fall for the latest and greatest gadgets in the kitchen and are always looking for that extra inch of storage in our 50 sq. ft kitchen for our newest toy. But we also love our classical cooking repertoire, recipes from Christian's grandmother and Brittaney's great-grandmother fill our recipe box and are always a fan favorite.
In this blog, we hope to show y'all everything from classical recipes from grandma to new recipes with newer gadgets and gizmos, and even some of our daily life adventures. We love to cook and we hope that we can share that love with you!
