Welcome

I love cooking food and decorating spaces. I have spent many years learning and refining my skills for the things I am so passionate about. With my blog I want to share suggestions, tips and ideas with hopes to inspire you to become a savvy host and house proud yourself. I am passionate about anything food and home decor and have always thought that the two go hand in hand. My background is Italian and I get my inspirations for food from a family of great cooks. I love to experiment with old favorites and add my own touch to make it new, lighter and healthier. I love coming up with new dishes by just looking in the fridge and using up whatever is in there that day. Some of my best dinner parties were simple foods prepared with passion and the right ambiance and then share it with really great people . I would welcome any comments, ideas or questions.

Foods and Moods

Its amazing how just the smell of food can affect us. We don't all get affected in the same way,everyone has a different reaction to certain scents that fill the air. I like to think its like perfume, some are attracted to fruity and some to spicy, some to sweet etc. With the right aromas and combination's there is sure something to extract juices from our taste buds.

Entering a room filled with tantalizing smells along with the right atmosphere will immediately put us in the right state of mind to indulge in the ritual of consuming food and drink. Whether its breakfast in bed, a cocktail party, an intimate dinner or a family buffet, it's important to make it perfect. When its done right all of our senses become awakened. And who knows what else.
