About me
By day, I work in a research lab to study nutrition, obesity, and metabolism. By night, I forget all of that and I EAT. Life is full of contradictions.

Before I liked food, I liked photography. I still do.

About my food
My preference is for carbs--rice, bread, noodles, pastries. But since you can't (or at least shouldn't) eat cake alone, I do try to cook other things.

About this blog
Big family gatherings or just staying out late with a couple of friends--our fondest memories most often involve food, drink and laughter.But now that our friends and family are scattered around the world, a lot of our meals are shared through a quick photo and text. I set up this blog to highlight some of the recipes that are more than just a quick cell phone shot. Foods that remind me of my mom or that weekend getaway with friends in grad school. These are the foods that I would love to share with you the next time we meet.

*And since it needs to be said--I'm extremely flattered if you would like to use a photo/recipe, but please link back to the original post.
