I'm delighted to introduce myself here...

Hi. My name is Fareeda and I was introduced to this community by a friend who said it was a great place to share my cooking tips and connect with similar minded people.

I have a passion for cooking and reading and currently work with the elderly and those with terminal illnesses too, which can be emotionally taxing, yet very rewarding. So I'm hoping to be able to let off a bit of steam in here ;)

I'm currently residing in the UK, and would love to know where the rest of you are from. If this proves good, I may just replace facebook with it. I'm really hoping to benefiting from as many of you here as I can and look forward to giving something back in return.
