– Updated: August 10, 2009 –
Lately, a wind of change blows on my kitchen diaries. I am far from an advanced programmer and have come to realise that some features will remain out of my reach for long. Yet, little by little, I wish to make my kitchen a cosy, homy and handy place for every one, like the kitchen of my childhood where everyone would always come back too.
A recipe index, was definitely missing to this blog, especially with my bad habits of giving pretty strange post titles. I hope it will help you roam around my kitchen more easily. If not mentioned otherwise, recipes are in english. Have a look at the lexicon for french, english and dutch equivalents of the main ingredients and techniques.
Enjoy, m.
