WHO IS ALA?

Hi! I’m a digital marketer in the film industry by trade and a lover of intellectual curiosities at heart. For over six years, I was an academic researcher in English children’s literature and still find ways to incorporate my love of books & writing into everything I do. When I’m not baking or blogging, I am a swimmer, triathlete, globetrotter, bibliophile, ice cream eater, theatergoer, vegetarian, animal lover, and unapologetic proponent of bad dad jokes.

WHY “WALLFLOUR GIRL”?

Even though I am absurdly extroverted (just ask my friends, my family, the boy, the cashiers at Ralphs…), there’s nothing I love better at the end of a long day than retreating to the comfort of my kitchen. Baking in the background–away from the bustle and demands of everyday life–helps me recover from the social spotlight every once in a while, so all of the recipes you’ll find here are simple and fuss-free. I created Wallflour Girl as a way to share some of my favorite fully-baked recipes (served with a side of half-baked stories!).

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE RECIPES?

I have too many to count, but pretty much anything you can find on this blog is a personal favorite of mine. My most frequent offenders include these No-Bake Cookie Butter Avalanche Cookie Bars, this Chocolate Layer Cake with Peanut Butter Frosting, and these Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies.

HOW OFTEN DO YOU POST?

My posting schedule really depends on the usual things: work, training, personal life stuff, and how much procrastibaking I’m committed to doing. But I try to post at least a few times a month.

CAN I CONTACT YOU?

I love chatting! The best way of reaching me with recipe questions, sponsorship opportunities, and other ideas is by leaving a comment OR emailing me directly at [email protected]. Please visit my Contact Me page for more details.

Thanks for stopping by!
