My name is Marilyn,i came from the lower eastern part of Camarines Sur in the Bicol region of the Philippine Archipelago.I currently live in Italy .I started cooking when I got married and have children. My hobby is cooking,I started cooking simple dishes and only later moved into cooking real meals. My blog is a collection of simple and delicious recipes with an Italian flair at the same time with a little bit of Asian taste. My recipes are a mixture of my own ideas,but often get inspired by magazines,books. Cooking is an expression of who you are ,and your personality. You have to put your whole self into it,your feelings and experiences all go into the food and you become part of the recipes. I believe fresh ingredients is the secret for the greatest tasty meals,also lots of pleasure when plates are wiped clean and every stomach are satisfied. .
