Introduction

I am Neha Dharwadkar.Born and brought up in Jalgaon Maharastra.Studied in Pune.Worked in Pune , Bangalore , Mumbai ,Hyderabad as IT engineer.Came here in US along with my husband.

I like to roam around,explore things,watch cartoons(tom n jerry is my fav) and eat yummy foods :)

Now I am at home as I am a dependent here.Thats the reason I tried different recipes and passed my time.....And my hubby inspired me a lot to do so...he is a foodie....cooks new dishes whenever he feels....So that way I got a guinea pig who can test and taste my recipes ;)

Ok enough of my story .....now lets begin..
