How it all started…
I’ve loved cooking for as long as I can remember. Unlike most "traditional"
households, my mother was not one to be in the kitchen, due to her hectic work
schedule. But my dad, if he didn’t do anything else, he made sure he cooked for
his girls. My dad and Julia Childs were my cooking instructors. I used to stand
on my step stool beside him in the kitchen and watch him create meals that
warmed my tummy. I fell in in love with food and cooking during those childhood
years. I could always just whip up recipes; it’s my God-given talent. So many
people say they can’t cook but half the fear is just doing it, you might be
surprised. |

I started this blog honestly for my newswriting and reporting class in college. But my dad always stressed the fact to document my recipes and a pen and notebook wasn’t going to cut it. Hopefully the blog will help me with what I hope to do one day: make a living in something to do with food for now, I enter cooking competitions, write this blog and fit school in along the way.
