welcome to my humble abode
re: joyce
copious coffee consumer, professional procrastibaker, aspiring architect, alliteration abuser, and now beginner blogger. food is my first and foremost love language and as an introvert (ISFJ / enneagram 2w1) who often struggles to find the right words to say, i've found that it's easier to express appreciation or apologies through a homecooked meal or warm baked goodies.
sohntaste is inspired by the korean idiom 손맛 (pronounced sohn-maht; sohn = hand, maht = taste).
this "hand-taste" is the secret ingredient that your mom or grandma adds to any dish they make; it's that missing flavor you can't put your finger on when you try to replicate a recipe no matter how closely you follow the instructions. this blog is an attempt to develop my 손맛 and honor my korean-american roots. outside of the kitchen, you’re likely to find me workin my #outdoorjoyces / attempting to offset my carb-intake through running, hiking, or biking.
