Happy Mew Year!

It has been an incredible 

2016 year in

My Fale.

We are reaping the harvest 

from seeds we have planted, 

years ago.

2016 was not even enough time to 

complete the harvest.

It seems 2017 will be another "year of plenty."

I wish you and yours an abundant 2017 year. 

#HappyMewYear

p.s. #Education is power.

The suspense continues...

Research Methods course. Do I need to explain any further?

By the way, I'm getting smarter. 

(I hope!)

To be continued...

I'll be back...

Keep Calm

After 4 of 5 members of our family

went back-to-school 

this month,

it felt like my daughter's 

new "meme"

was the perfect phrase 

to sum up our 

month of September...

"Why I'm Cooking So Good?"...

I've learned a few things about myself lately...

Cooking relaxes me,

Cooking de-stresses me,

Cooking bring me so much joy.

(which also, brings my family so much joy as well!)

I'm a pretty passionate person and I also enjoy passionate people.

I've enjoyed learning how to cook Italian food and many other foods from different cultures, via many passionate cooks on Foodtube and Youtube in general. I love it! I love everything about it - especially when it comes to tasting the results. 

If I can do it, anyone can.

Happy cooking!

My favourite cook? Gennaro Contaldo. I never thought that I could ever make risotto and Gennaro (Jamie Oliver's teacher) inspired me to give it a try. 

Mushroom risotto is now a family favourite.

The one when Jamie Oliver's son takes a tinkle..

in the middle of the cooking video... 

(btw, happy 5th baby Jamie & family. Bravo!)

p.s. "Why I'm cooking so good?!" That's a line from Gennaro. It's also a new family tradition now.

Better at 40...

My Mum gave me the best birthday card this year.

It's pretty much true...

More reflections to come...

Minding my own business...

My research is leading to a business idea.

I'll be back with more details.

Stay tuned...
