This is just a personal diary of my own original recipes as well as recipes I have tried from others around the world. I started this after my kitchen was done up as it inspired me to want to spend time cooking in my kitchen.
My aim here is just to keep track of the recipes I have invented along with those I have tried from around the world. It’s also a place for me to keep track of the many different sites I find along the way that I find helpful in learning to further my cooking ability.
After many years I have decided that food should not only look good but should also be very tasty. So I intend to learn to make my food not only look great but taste great also.
