My name is Raquel and I am a curly haired foodie living on the Upper West Side in Manhattan, NY. Originally I started this blog a couple years ago to journal my quest to lose weight and get healthy (hence the Brussels Sprout theme), however now, living a healthy life has become the norm and I have now moved on to simply blogging about the my life and new experiences here in the big city.
Feel free to comment, but beware, this is a place where I like to express myself, it could get ugly 
Hey. Found your blog website from your Yelp profile. Love your blog photo (brussel sprouts). It’s one of my favorite veggies.
Thanks for stopping by! Funny you should mention the sprouts, I’m cooking them for dinner as we speak! I could eat the
everyday if I could! How do you cook yours? I boil them first, cut them up then sauté them in a pan with some spray oil, garlic, basil, red pepper flakes and nutmeg….
I like mine nice and simple as well – just steamed and then with some herbs or spices.
cut them in half put them in a pan with salt, pepper, EVOO, and anchovey paste and sautee ohh an finish with some butter spary
