-Good food ends with good talk- - Geoffrey Neighor

Welcome to my kitchen!

My name is Amy and I’m a new blogger and this blog is all about food, mostly Asians and Vietnamese food!

I’m a full time accountant and a housewife who loves to be in the kitchen and cook.

I remembered when I was little and whenever we have family gathering, it’d take days and night just to prepare the food for the family event. And as curious as a little girl, I’d followed my aunts around the kitchen, offered my help. There were no recipes to follow back then, it was more of an estimate on the ingredients but the food came out perfect every single time!!!  As I grew older and we moved to the United States, I’d helped my mom cook for the family and learned some kitchen techniques from her.

My passion for cooking became prominent when I got married a couple years ago. Now I can’t depend on my mom’s cooking for me all the time anymore (no more “Mom, I’m hungry, please feed me!!” J). I was struggling with recipes because I found myself cooking the same dishes every week. I only have a handful of dishes that I know by heart like: quick spaghetti, pork chops, or chicken dishes.  And as much as my husband enjoyed a few dishes I have on hand, I feel like I should start making new dishes for him (I’m such a good wife, I know “wink”!!)  

I started looking up at recipes and adding my own ingredients but I always lose those recipes and always find myself going back to remember which ingredients I’ve added or used. Then the purpose of a food blog came along. I’m writing this blog mostly to share my passion for cooking as well as a place to keep recipes for myself and to others who are passionate about cooking as I am. I’m not a professional blogger and not a writer, and still in the process to learn so any advices or comments will greatly be appreciated.

Thank you for visiting and Let the cooking begins J
