About Me

Hi, I’m Joanne! Welcome to my blog where I share musings and recipes. I’ve been cooking since I was a kid, I’m a passionate cook and a passionate eater.

I was born in New York City and I grew up between the city and Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. I spent half a decade living in Barcelona, Spain and traveling Europe. I now live in the very diverse city of Houston, Texas with my partner, son and many plants.

My travels to Japan, Samaná, Europe, and Mexico rewired my brain. My relentless curiosity, and background living in culturally rich cities make my palate very diverse and that’s something that’s very much reflected in my recipes! Start browsing recipes now!
