Welcome..

I love food. I'm one of those odd people that actually enjoys the cooking of the food more then the actual eating of it. The kitchen for me is my happy place. It's my place to go when I need to clear my mind and let myself get lost in my cooking. It's my safe haven.

Except for the fact that I'm a klutz. On an extreme level. I mean, sometimes the floor just needs a hug. Walls too. I spread the love. Often. And forget about the kitchen. The cabinets constantly run into me leaving me covered in black and blue forget-me-nots. And the oven. That thing is always all over me. It's got the hots for me. Literally. I've totally got the scars to prove it, too. I can't even manage baking without leaving the kitchen looking like the flour beat me up. It's worth it though, even when my baked goods attack me.

Every time I share my creations with friends I'm told...

"You have to write a cookbook."

"Where's the cookbook?"

"How's the cookbook?"

"You really should write that cookbook already."

As someone who lives on the internet, gets all my recipe ideas online, and never uses my dusty cookbooks,  I can't even begin to imagine writing a cookbook..

..but a blog? A food blog? I can do that.

So, here you go. 

Enjoy :)

    1. You: standing on a chair trying to get a good angle for a picture.
      Me: running around half dressed like a madwoman cause I need to wrap up the plate and run since I'm late late late for Arabic.

      I couldn't do it without you. You always have my back. Even when I end up making YOU late for YOUR Arabic class too.

      May Allah accept it from you and make it a witness for you..

  3. awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, I wuv the fact that your sissy and mumzy commented on the post. I'm honestly really excited about your blog. Because I will be counting on you to teach me how to cook. And how to cook with flair. And I will be expecting you to actually put ingredients things that I can find here in Alexandria.
