About me

Cooking is my passion a big stress buster. I have been cooking from Age 10 and not sure how, but cooking just came naturally to me. Not to forget to mention that my Mom is  a great cook. May be I got this skill from her (All credit to her).

For me cooking is a performance and every ingredient has a role to play. I use best quality products in my cooking as its the key to tasty food. I spend not more than 1/2 hr in the kitchen to make a meal. My hubby (Cherry that's how I call him) & I love to eat good food. If the food doesn't taste good, I don't eat it:) Since My hubby is a great fan of Indian food, You will see that I have a good recipe bank of Indian food.

A little bit about me:
I am from a beautiful small town "Madikeri" which in in Coorg district, Karnataka state, India. I am a Roman Catholic & did my schooling in coorg, later graduation in Mangalore & post graduation in Bangalore. There is a proper blend of culture in coorg & coorg people are well known for their hospitality. 

From a Corporate Executive to being a full time mommy and now a passionate Food blogger, my life has so far been very dynamic. My career started in 2004 at Tesco & was part of Learning & development team. After Tesco, worked with Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC), McAfee India & RBS in Singapore.

Vibrant as life has been, somewhere in the middle of all this I married the Man I LOVE in 2008 , a complete IT professional. We lived in Singapore for some time & had our son Zion there. Currently we are in Austin Tx & totally in love with this place.  


During my break from Corporate life, I started this blog
“Korporate2kitchen.com”  , Custom cake business Zionsbakehouse.com & now a full time Licensed Real estate Agent in  Austin Texas www.zionsestate.com 

If you are planning to move to Austin Tx, do not forget to contact me for your Realestate needs. I help people in Buying, selling, renting & in investment properties. 

 My strength is cooking & I can turn up any boring meal into 5 star style delicious meal. Food photography is not my cup of tea, but I try my best these days to take a better shot.  I hope you will enjoy trying out my recipes. Please pass on your feedback if you have tried any of my recipes. Happy cooking:)

  15. Hi Sheela, Good attempt. Since 2011 you have published a lot of recipes. Have you thought of selling your food items online?

    If you are passionate about cooking and want to make it your full time job, then you should make your profile on www.authenfood.com

    An example profile of another food blogger who is stay at home mom and commercializing through it is http://authenfood.com/item/linsy-home-cook-food/ . Its expanding in major cities of US and Canada, therefore getting lot of traffic online.
