About Me

About Me :
-------------

I am Sailaja Damodaran , a happy and spirited homemaker ,a wife and mother to 2 beautiful children - one in college and other in high school.

Its the only thing I've ever wanted to be. I feel lucky to be a housewife,a stay-at-home mom and do what I love every day,that is cooking,organizing,decorating and gardening.Originally I am from India but made beautiful Arizona my home from past 16 years.
Like every other Indian I am an avid 'foodie', who loves good,clean,healthy food. I started experimenting in kitchen when I was merely 7 years old,thats right at the age of 7, I would play kitchen in the real sense and my dad would tirelessly try every mush I made with a smile and encouragement. He would also luxuriate in the expensive spices without a little hesitation.Thats how my journey of cooking started and I even got a degree on hotel management and catering technology to learn the finer skills and art about Cooking. After Marriage, my husband became the biggest critic and enthusiast of my food. I have been cooking fresh gourmet meals each day,everyday from past 25 years. This not only has helped me sharpen my skills but also made me a clean eater.All recipes are made in my style.You can alter according to your taste buds.We grow fresh organic vegetables in our garden, I believe in garden to table concept and implementing it in our life everyday.  Both gardening and cooking is meditation for my soul,helps me rejuvenate and let go of any negativity .

I started to blog www.sailajakitchen.org in 2009 as I wanted to share whatever wisdom I have gathered over the years and the proceedings from my blog goes to my favorite charity - ( Sankara Eye Foundation -Website www.giftofvision.org  

How much do I earn?
----------------------------------
I find it very impolite to ask about someone's paycheck or being asked. No offense anyone.

When are you going to call me home to taste?
