Hi, I’m Angi.
I live in San Francisco with my husband Nathan and our black kitty Toro, who is also a foodie in his own special way. I swear, that cat can hear a tuna can open from a mile away, which can be problematic since more often than not, the tuna is meant for our nicoise salad and not for his kitty bowl.
This blog will be a record of my cooking adventures, not only from following recipes in cookbooks, but also of learning to move beyond relying on recipes all the time and to improvise in the kitchen. I love eating complicated food as much as the next girl, but I decided long ago to leave that up to the professionals and have no plans to purchase squeeze bottles or giant square plates anytime soon.
At home, I try to make simple and delicious meals from fresh ingredients that don’t cost a fortune. I’m finding that life does not get less busy the older you get, but I hope that with enough practice and tricks up my sleeves, I will always be able to turn out home-cooked meals for the people i love.
Cooking doesn’t have to be fussy, scary, or intimidating and I’m prepared to show it!
