Introduction

Welcome to my new cooking blog! I just moved into a new apartment and I don't have all of my things yet. You can see in the photo that the kitchen is very GREEN and rather empty. However, despite my limited kitchen I am going to make some fabulous meals for myself. And, I'm going to tell you how I do it.


I’m not a professional chef, just a regular cook that loves cooking with fresh, affordable ingredients. I’m inspired by produce and plan meals around what is currently in season. Cooking can be a creative, spontaneous activity if you allow it to be. I hope that this blog will help you develop the ability to open the fridge, decide what needs to be eaten and build a meal around those ingredients. I am going to tell you what foods I have available to me, what I plan to cook for dinner, if it worked, how the plan changed and how to do it yourself. I’ll also give suggestions on recipe variations, how to use leftovers, how to shop for food and other useful cooking tips. Enjoy!
