I am 35 , living just outside London in the beautiful Surrey countryside.

I married my internet sweetheart met online in a Yahoo chat and then for real at a Japanese culture exhibition in Hyde Park (London).

I am originally Italian but my 'blondness' makes me pass for anything else.

I divide my life between preparing an inordinate amount of food , looking after my little monkey (3 1/2 little boy) and trying to squeeze some work in between.

I hang my head in shame , I confess : I am a foodie.

I love to buy food, to talk about food, to read about food...you get the idea.

Take a big chunk of Mediterrenean , a sprinkle of Carribean , a big glug of Asian and that's a recipe for disaster: me :)
