About me: I am a freelance food writer, recipe developer and photographer. Food is my passion - baking, cooking, developing recipes, making recipes healthier, using fresh seasonal produce and local products, keeping a check on my carbon footprint and being a responsible foodie! I enjoy food styling, food photography, recipe development and product reviews. I express this through my food photographs which I style and the recipes I blog. My strength lies in 'Doing Food From Scratch'; it must taste as good as it looks, and be healthy too. Baking in India, often my biggest challenge is the non-availability of baking ingredients, and this has now become a platform to get creative on. I enjoy cooking immensely as well.

Thank you so much my friend for choosing me among so many wonderful blogs out there. It means a lot coming from you who deserves this award more than anyone else. Your cookies are so cute and I have already bought some ginger to make some but did not have a recipe yet. I remember them from my childhood and have not eaten them since. Your recipe is perfect for me to begin with. Thank you again.
