About Storm

Dear Blogosphere,

It’s lovely to finally meet you face to face.

I’ve been stalking you forever. After spending half a year reading food blogs, I decided it was time to take our relationship to the next level.

So here I am

I suspect you’ll want to know a little about me before I hug you (sorry I’m a bit clingy, but I feel as though I know you so well already).

So here are: Ten (plus one!) things about me

Colourful cupcakes make me happy.

I just turned 27 28 and that scares me a little bit.

The Lord of the Rings trilogy is the best movie (x3) ever.

My cheesecake has been known to please a few.

I’ve been best friends with my best friend for more than 15 years.

Dad named me Storm because I was born on a stormy night.

If I had to choose my last meal, it would be mom’s mutton biryani.

Eggs are my favourite item in the kitchen.

I can watch tv shows everyday for the rest of my life.

Dogs make my world happier.

I love to cook, bake, and eat of course

Please come back for recipes, reviews, photographs and all my food adventures!

Can’t wait to share my world with you!

Love, (and a hug?)

Storm

If you want to say hello, please leave a comment below or email me at charis1984@gmail.com

I’d love to hear from you!

This is my first blog ever. Love food with a passion but started experimenting with it only after I quit the corporate world and had my twin girls. And 27 seems like something that happened a long time ago (probably because it did!) Of all people, my husband came across someone who recommended this site and suggested that I take a look. I am so happy that I actually listened to him this time! I will be a regular visitor from now on. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Hey Storm,

A friend just forwarded your blog to me and I fell in love with it instantly. Your daring, yet surprisingly simple recipes, have made me want to bake something immediately. But can’t help it, am at work right now.

I turned 27 several years back. Was scared then, but not anymore

Hi Stormie,
write something about “meat, wonderful meat, red and glorious meat. Can’t live without ‘eat’. that fantastic meat.”
(pardon the po-eat-ic license) But just write ‘eat’ anyway!!!!!.

  Haha yes!! Will do one on beautiful red meat soon
