How nice that you visit my site. I'm Andréa and my passion is cooking and entertaining. Together with my husband and three sons, I live in the South of the Netherlands.
We have a family business in photography and in addition this delicious food blog. Of course I'm on the road a lot with (and for ;-)) the children and I like to volunteer for our small village community. Because I'm lucky enough to live in a very nice and small village. I live on the outskirts of the village and when I look around I see polder, the dyke and the forest. A very nice place and we live there with great pleasure.

And what else...
Furthermore, to the despair of some of my family members, I am a huge QUEEN fan for years and so it's (almost) always on. When the Spotify ratings for Queen go up I'm certainly one of the responsible persons. I play the music often and hard, because that gives me energy and I always get inspiration from that. And usually I sing along, dance or play the air guitar ;-). So don't pay me an unexpected visit for that reason.
And I love watching cooking programs and I can do that for evenings long. And I like to read a book. Doing nothing is not my cup of tea, then I would rather bake or cook or sort something out. Oh yes, and I love to photograph food. Because what could be better than the red of the tomato or the green of the spring onion or … Well you understand where I want to go.
Lots of cooking and reading pleasure,
Love,
Andréa
