About Me

Hello there! Welcome to my world of food and visualisation. 

I am a crafty person. I like anything which involves getting your hands dirty. Right from little intricate DIY crafts to fixing things up with screws and bolts! Odd, eh? Yeah, am a bit crazy that way.

How did I end up starting this blog? Because I love food, I love grocery shopping and I hate clothes shopping :P

My first date with food was when I was 10 years old and there was this pack of yellow lentils lying around the house. One afternoon when the family was having a quiet nap I decided to meddle in the kitchen. An hour later, dad woke up, walked in and finished off the dish. Hmm.. I thought to myself.. not bad (fills up with pride).  I think it was all those Enid Blyton’s Famous Fives and Merry Mister Meddles that turned me into both a foodie and a (kitchen) meddler! What followed in the years to come was a Mango and fried rice sandwich on a lazy summer afternoon, my take on sautéed spinach and garlic served with steamed rice, and cabbage and carrot “manchurians”. 

Food and I have always been close buddies since then. The only thing that has changed in the last 20 years is my take on food. With every passing day, our lives are getting busier and more complicated. Most of us don’t have the time or energy to cook a meal at home. Our jobs, daily commutes, the traffic - everything adds to our stress. When we reach home after a tiring day, all we want to do is snuggle up with some comfort food , mostly processed and treated mind you.  What’s tragic is that we are at a stage where we need to call natural food “organic”. Shouldn’t we be calling food as food and treated food as “inorganic”?

I started this blog to get you to share my passion for good food.  And while we are at it, we will try to make it delicious and healthy. How do you know that the food we are cooking is healthy? We’ll try to throw in some infographics to help you visualise what goes into your food. And hopefully, with some basic ingredient information and great recipes we can bask in the comfort of home-cooked wholesome healthy food.
