I grew up in a small town in Tamil Nadu, Coimbatore and spent majority of my years there, with little exposure to cuisines around the world. I was brought in a home who loves to eat as well as cook. My mother was especially fond of cooking a variety of dishes and would always without fail try out anything new she tasted anywhere. She collected a zillion recipe clippings and she used to try them all. She cooked with so much love to a food addicted family.

Now she did not stop there. My brother and me had compusalry days of cooking and working in the kitchen. My baking days started as ealry as 9 years and then it moved on to chopping vegetables and then cooking basic food. Did i tell it you it was compulsary? Yes you got it right!

Life moved on and so did I move on to many cities and countries. My repertoire on variety of cuisines, cooking skills, and smell for secret ingredients was growing and it continues to grow. Work life stopped and motherhood began, which started giving me time to idle away. This idle time gave me a brilliant idea to start writing a recipe book.  As these thoughts were evolving Blog Cooking)ha  started taking over books and recipes were all over the intenet. Well, i decided to join the world of bloggers and took this opportunityto share my thoughts on food, health, nutrition and love for cooking by writing recipes and sharing it to the world and thats you!

Ever since I started this blog, I have been trying to perfect my recipes every time I cook. My kitchen became a "test kitchen" and this becan showing in my recipes as well. Each time i cooked, I wrote, and again wrote and again cooked and re wrote. This means, every single time I cooked, I would make a change of ingredient to the recipe and viola another recipe came out of it. I could not possibly blog to every detail and still have not been able to get to much detail. But all I can say is each time you cook, love what you do and love your ingredient and no matter what your recipe you will love what you cook :).

Lastly; I expect and respect every critical comment on any recipe tried, this surely improves the recipes over time. The comments over time improves the recipe and will help me understand "Your" need and "Your" taste. So looking forward to seeing you more often and would love to have your contributions as well.

"Enjoy your cooking, Never cook for the sake of doing it. Take a deep breath and let all those positive energies flow into your food and make you fit, healthy and stress free".
