Helloo!
I am Shruti Agrawal . I am a marketer turned blogger.
Well, I do not
I am a foodie and I love cooking and trying new recipes myself.Its not my recent or new found love for cooking and baking. As a kid, I would go to the kitchen and would ask mom to teach me how she makes such delicious recipes.
I have loved baking for my family and friends ever since. But i never thought about writing my own blog or sharing my recipes.By each passing day.. my passion for baking heightened and it really made me happy. This is when, i decided i should start my Blog and trust me I felt amazing writing my first post. I have always maintained a personal diary, and wrote my each day onto it. When i decided on writing my blog….. the first thing i had to decide was the name, well because of my love for maintaining personal diaries…. the only name that striked me for my blog was “Cooking Diary”. I didnt even give it a second thought :P. It was AMAZING!
Cooking is an ART! Be as Creative as you can ! 🙂
I truly believe that cooking is an art and you dont need to be perfect at it. You can have your own version of everything and anything you make. I always like to make my version of the recipe if i am adapting it from somewhere. All you need to do is explore. “Never be afraid of trying something new in your kitchen”
I love Italian and Chinese food. Pasta’s are my favourite. I can have them any time of the day. I do have a sweet tooth. However, i don’t enjoy the Indian sweets as much. I love muffins, doughnuts, cakes, pastries, cupcakes………. and the list continues 😛 😉 I just cant get enough of them. As much as i enjoy eating them…I enjoy making them tooo….
Just like any little girl….I love Strawberries.. Its my favorite fruit. I wish fresh strawberries were available throughout the year 😦 … But when they are not available i use the flavor or the extract. When they are available i use them in almost everything i make…lol. I enjoy baking very much. I will be posting a lot of baking dishes… BAKING just makes me super happieee :
I am a movie buff….I love watching Bollywood Movies….”HOllywood MOvies “? Nah, i dont watch them….. I love eating out……Italian at Theos…. Big Chills Cafe…. Doughnuts at Dunkinns…. All of them… 🙂
Desserts attract me the most…So i love making them…. I love the bakery shop..Right from pastries… to doughnuts….to muffins…to chocolates…all of them.
I love Cofffeeee (Cold or Hot- Both)
Jalebiiii my favourite…. I always keep craving for it 😀
Thank You for Reading!
