The Origin of this blog

I love cooking and it is a great stress buster for me. It helps me de-stress ,calms me down if i am angry or brings me back to normal if i am depressed. I started cooking around 4 years back after i came to Boston. Back in college, the worst thing i cooked was making a disaster of a Maggi. ( i have no clue what went wrong there, i blame the maggi). But even though i did not cook anything, i would be moving in and around the kitchen when somebody was cooking. Unconsciously i must have picked off their ways.

I used to live with my mom, grand mom and aunt, and all of them have their own specialties and cooking styles. My cooking is heavily influenced by all three. I constantly keep asking them for newer recipes or ways to improve on what i have already cooked.

Also whenever i want to try something new, i Google up at least 4-5 different recipes and then mix them up to get my own. And after all this effort i forget, so the next time i am back to square one and googling again. That is why i started this blog as my recipe book so that i have easy access and reference whenever needed.
