Pampered Palates

For those readers who might want to know about whom I am, here is some background.

I finished my bachelors in accounting in India and came to United States as a newlywed. I worked as a Realtor in New Jersey for years. Currently I’m living in Florida with my husband and three year old son, where I am pursuing my study further and working as a licensed childcare provider at a day care.

I do not have any formal training in culinary arts; I have learned to cook from my grandmother, cookbooks, internet sources and trial and error in the kitchen.  The recipes presented here are not my own creations. I have collected them from various sources including magazines, television, cook books and the internet. In most cases, I have altered the original recipes to suit the taste and preferences of my family. I like to cook all kinds of cuisine including Indian (naturally), Italian, Chinese, Thai, French, American, Mexican in a relaxed manner. The recipes are sometimes elaborate but I usually do whatever steps I can ahead of time. I also work efficiently by using a variety of time-saving kitchen gadgets.  My knowledge about pre-preparation of meal ingredients and about useful tools for the kitchen is something I also hope to offer my blog readers.

Food tastes better with the ones you love. For me, there is nothing as fun and relaxing as cooking.
