I am a free spirited person who absolutely loves food. Family means the world to me and I am a shopaholic. I can be fun and serious, just like I am lifestyle blogger and a Law student.

Simple Mac & Cheese with a toasted cheese layer on top.
I woke up at 3am really hungry and I didn’t want to make Indomie or a bowl of cereal. I stormed to the kitchen trying to figure out what to eat. Before I slept I watched a cooking show about a restaurant ‘The cheese wheel’ so my mind had cheese all over it. The kind…
