NZ Cooking Monster

I have been told in this day and age it is rare for a 21 year old female to find cooking such a hobby, so i decided to write this blog to keep record of my experiences and cooking conquests. Im definatly big on simple but good meals, and of a decent size! Anything I post up will more than likely be good simple and as Kiwi as can be :-) Hopefully along the way I may inspire other to give it a go, who can resist good food...apart from Posh Spice and Nicole Richie!
