About a Scout

Hi, I’m Scout. I’m a former pastry chef and baking teacher from Portland, Oregon—by way of Sonoma County, California—now living in a super small “mansion” in Tokyo…with an even more ridiculously tiny kitchen space.

In addition to the constraints of cooking in a limited area, I am also disabled & autistic. I’ll occasionally write about my life, too, as it definitely impacts everything I do (and this is a blog after all!), but mostly I’ll try to stick to food…buying it, baking it, cooking it, eating it, admiring it, etc.

Please call me Scout!

Always follow a recipe exactly the first
time you make it…
unless you can’t be arsed.”

it Me!
A selfie of Scout, sitting in the back seat of a car, with a smile on her face, the window rolled down, and her blonde hair blowing in the wind.

I’m Scout. I live in a really small apartment in Tokyo, with a ridiculously tiny kitchen, a wee balcony garden, an adorable little asshole of a cat, and a relatively normal~sized husband. 

And honestly? On any given day, I’m just trying to make lunch happen…
