T hanks for dropping by. Little did I know that being married to a chef means that he would never goes into the kitchen. Ever. Now that he's an ex chef, I am still in charge of the cooking department, which I learned to enjoy. Here's to the joy of cooking. There are recipes I've tested or created, food reviews and photography. It is a playground where I can be myself, experimenting with food and expressing the creative part of me.
You are welcome to copy the recipes and I would appreciate a link back or possibly a comment or two. That would make my day. Please appreciate that I put enormous amount of efforts in each posting: cooking from scratch, food styling & providing props, taking photos of the food, editing, creating an appealing intro and content to the post, I would not allow you to copy/duplicate/steal any images without my permission. Please respect that. If you'd like to use my images, please contact me through the contact form in this website.
