If you have a love of food….You’ve come to the right page! My name is Michelle Brinkers, I am a professional stylist and make-up artist, singer/songwriter, wife, mother and self-taught cook.

My love of cooking comes from growing up in an Italian and Lithuanian family. The one most important thing that I learned was, whatever you cook, cook it with love! In my family, recipes were not always written down. They were usually prepared by eye, taste, touch and smell. A pinch of this, a handful of that.  The aromas that permeated through my house and my grandparents house were amazing.  To this day I can be brought right back to my childhood by the smell of sauce simmering on the stove or the smell of   homemade cake or cookies in the oven.

I have always loved the art of cooking. It’s therapy for me. The best reward is being able to cook for my family and friends! The sounds they make and looks on their faces when they are enjoying something I made for them. It makes me happy to know that I’ve satisfied their taste buds! I also love preparing foods from many different cultures.

At the many requests of my family and friends, I am on this journey to share my love of cooking with the world, so I welcome everyone to enjoy my photos, recipes, and stories.

Enjoy!
