Today I am scheduled to film my first video tutorial. I’m not prepared, and the Duran Duran song “Girls on Film” keeps playing in my head. I will be making the red sauce, the weekly hen, and I think a recipe I’ve been meaning to upload for some time (won’t say which one yet.). I chose what I would be cooking today because I was preparing the recipes on camera in my dream last night. This didn’t sit well with Photographer Matt who will be shooting and editing the footage. He’s expressed concern that I haven’t been practicing.
“Didn’t you pick what you would be cooking beforehand?” he asked.
I hadn’t. And I don’t know what to practice since I keep laughing every time I stand in front of a mirror and say, “Hi, I’m Marguerite.”
So that’s basically it. Now I must go, and practice saying my name. And talking while I cook. Which is surprisingly difficult since I usually cook alone.
