Hello & Welcome
I have been cooking and baking since I was a little tot. My passion grew when I realized, I could create things my family and friends would enjoy. To me, there is no better way to tell someone you love them, then to create a delicious meal for them. ♥
At age 5, I was standing on a step stool, waiting for my mom to pass the spatula so that I could mix the banana bread batter. At the age of 12, I was watching Emeril Live instead of MTV. For my 16th birthday, I asked for something unexpected (no, not a car). I got the best gift ever; my very first Kitchen Aid stand mixer! My passion for cooking took a bit of a hiatus while in graduate school. But now my kitchen is back in full swing!
If there is one thing I have learned, it is that food truly does bring people together.
I know that not everyone has the privilege to eat delicious things with their families. The unfortunate reality is that millions of people do not have enough to eat. I hope to use my platform to bring awareness to this. I support No Kid Hungry in their mission to end child hunger.
On my site you will find the yummy treats, the savory bites and everything else that is created in my kitchen. I am Muslim, so no bacon here!
I hope to write and publish my own cookbook to share the extra special recipes from my childhood. To me, I can only honor these recipes in a printed, hardcover, bright and beautiful book 🙂
Please feel free to comment, make suggestions for recipes you would like to see and share my recipes with friends.
Xoxo,
