2nd June 2025 — A Special Milestone
Today marks the 5th anniversary of my kitchen blog, which I started on 2nd June 2020. I’m overjoyed to share that I’ve now completed 500 recipes — each one personally made by me, never by a cook, and never copied from anywhere else.
In the beginning, I wrote recipes similar to how they appear in traditional cookbooks. But what always set mine apart was my focus on perfect, tried-and-tested measurements. Over the years, my blog has evolved. After earning certifications in Ayurveda and Diet & Nutrition, I began writing in a more holistic and informative style, including nutritional values and how ingredients can be used as home remedies.
What has remained unchanged from Day 1 is my core principle: I share only those recipes I have prepared with my own hands in my own kitchen. That authenticity is the heart of my blog.
One more thing that I’ve followed right from the start — and mention in every recipe — is to serve with love and a smile. This is not just a phrase, but a beautiful part of our Indian tradition: first, we serve others with love, and only then we eat. Cooking is not just about feeding the body, but about sharing warmth, care, and joy — and I try to reflect that in every dish.
On this special day, I feel deeply grateful to all of you — my wonderful readers, not only from my motherland India, but also from across the world, from Australia to America. Your support and encouragement have been my biggest motivation.
🙏 Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I do have one small request: If you enjoy my recipes, please take a moment to leave your comments and feedback. They mean a lot to me and help me grow and improve.
Here’s to many more years of cooking, sharing, and connecting through food!
With love,
Rajeshree Gandhi
