About Me

Hello and welcome to my blog.This is a wonderful experience of initiating and organizing the process of food blogging. My friends and family are always delighted by my food presentation at parties and potlucks.With their encouragement and love, I am here to express my culinary experience and simple photography. Hope I will be able to keep up with it.

I am a mom of two.What a merry challenge to balance my extremely busy life between my kids various activities, the household chores, blogging and many more.

Cooking has been always my passion since childhood. I am a self taught cook. My mother had passed her recipes to me and my sister. that are imprinted in the cookbook of memory.

I grew up in a small town of West Bengal located in the north eastern part of India. My parents were immigrants from East Bengal (now Bangladesh) the land of rivers and paddy fields. My mother cooked her native style Bangaal food most of the time. I will share my Bangaal recipes that I take pride and joy in preparing. My culinary journey is not limit to Bengali/Indian cooking .I have explored some delicious recipes across the globe over the years.

After moving to USA I learned more from various cooking shows.Public libraries are always great source to fuel my interest.I am still learning a lot world cuisines and it never ends.

Cooking is an art and very spiritual practice to me. I try to make everything from scratch with locally grown, seasonal and organic produces.
