When I was little I used to see my aunt use her heavy Kitchen Aid mixer when she was baking or to ground the meats she bought. That was my first sight of that wonderful kitchen appliance and it was the only one that I knew existed. Since I was exposed to cooking and baking…
I got curious because the lead actor won a Golden Globe for his portrayal in the show. I like watching shows that deal with cooking. I guess the topic resonated with me and I feel a connection somehow. The plot is simple – Carmy is a renowned cook, he came back to his family’s beef…
I am a salad snob. Yes, me – I am a salad snob. Why am I one? Well, because I find it pretentious sometimes when I see people consume just salad for a main meal. But now, I am a salad lover, yes – I have turned a new leaf this 2023 and appreciated greens,…

One thing I have neglected is my skin. I know, I know – I should take better care of my skin. Well, I try my best – I buy quality products and use them when I remember. You see, growing up – I was exposed to my elders doing make-up, I rarely saw them do…
