Faheema has actively participated in a couple of my events and you can find her entries here and here. She is somebody who does not miss to like my posts and give her feedback by messaging me. I am glad to see somebody in my personal circles who follows me quite earnestly. In order to show my thankfulness to her, I decided to invite her to do a post for me. She was surprised, but happy as well. Once thing which worried her was that she doesn't write as well as me. Well, I don't consider myself as a good writer though... whatever you see on the blog is just a very raw way of putting out my feelings, my expressions, my emotions... nothing else! You will not find any hard-to-understand jargon, because I don't know to write like that! I just told her to be herself and put me a post in "Faheema-style".
Let me pass this post on to her, and she brings along some awesome looking brownies... yum yum...
Thank u Rafee itha, the blogger of " The Big Sweet Tooth", for giving the non-blogger the opportunity to post their recipes. When she sent me the invitation through email, I gladly accept the offer. I love reading her blog and also her recipe is simple to make. What surprised me most is, though she is a working mum and mum of 2 kids,yet she manage the time to do blogging. She is a 'Supermom' indeed :) :)...Insha Allah, I'll start a blog in future :)
A short introduction
about me: I am Faheema Abdulkader, a keralite residing in Dubai, UAE with my
husband and 2.45 yr old son. I learn cooking after marriage. My hubby supports
me when I cook,also he gives opinion about the food how it tastes,whether good
or bad. This gives me the opportunity to improve the food I cook.In my opinion,
cooking is seasoned with right ingredients and of course LOVE,which is most
important :) . If you are not successful the food you make,don't
disappoint, try again,next time it will be better. I strongly believe the
proverb "Try Try until you succeed". So,this apply to cooking, ' The
perfection of cooking lies by doing not by talk :)
