About my blog

Enjoy this ongoing collection of recipes. Growing up in Sweden, my brother and I took turns cooking family meals. At age 10 I started collecting recipes. My food passion has led to an honorary mentioning in a magazine cooking contest, a stint in a medieval restaurant kitchen in Munich, and producing restaurant newsletters in NYC. I like to explore and experiment. A few recipes are vegan = V.
