Cynthia didn't grow up in a family of good home cooks.  In fact, it, for the lack of a better term, sucked.  Meals were boring and sometimes even dreadful  But as an adult, Cynthia got to do things HER WAY, often using harder-to-find, alternative ingredients.  She rarely follows recipes to a "T," often subbing flours and sugars.  Or sometimes, she'd even change things to the point that it needed a name change (such as her Cin Cin Mien)! 

Recipes: 

Cin Cin Mien:  A Dan Dan Inspired Dish 

Kefir Soda Bread 

Cacao Oat Cookies (this is a cacao version I made over the holiday season in 2020, using oat bran rather than rolled oats) 

The OG two ingredient oat/banana cookies recipe (from Ambitious Kitchen) 

Pumpkin Mooncakes (you can use the same recipe to make squares so it's not an issue that we're out of season)

Cynthia Cheng Mintz discusses her issues with being petite - short - and small-footed.  Not only is shopping tough, but comments from people can be a little bit....insensitive.  Short people are NOT lucky - they have just as many challenges as other-sized women - even when they're thin.
