Hello everyone! Welcome to my cooking blog. The following is a little background info from yours truly. Hope all the recipes and comments in here will help you feel more confident in practicing your cooking and relationship skills. Cooking is the easiest way to bond with one another because eating is a need we all share as human beings. When we take time to cook for those we love it makes us feel great about ourselves.
Now, I know that everyone is super busy with life and other responsibiliites, even I, who love to cook can't seem to find the time to do so everyday. But, there is no better time to change our way of thinking than today! We can prioritize and organize ourselves to make quick and yummy meals for our our families and friends. If you have any tips and suggestions, blog them along! This is our time to have fun and enjoy our lives by eating healthy and delicous meals with those we love!
I was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil where I lived for 15 years. On September 1988, my family moved to America in search of the "American Dream". I am now married to my dear husband, Tom, with a blended family of 6 children. They keep us pretty busy. Life has been interesting thus far. I was once told by a wise man that if I were to share my talents with those around me, I would find happiness and joy in my life. So, here I am willing to share this awesome talent with all my friends around the world.
Enjoy!
