The ultimate guide to Mangalorean Protestant Cuisine and my tales in the kitchen. You will find recipes of all kinds here, to tickle your palate. My name is Ruth and I am an Applied Psychologist with a post graduate degree in counseling and guidance. Over the years I have specialized in Obesity Counselling Services using food to reach out to the community. It is a great way to connect with people as food has an incredible impact on health. I started this blog to chronicle my adventures in the kitchen and to showcase the recipes handed down to me from my Mother and maternal grandmother Ajamma ( grandmother in the Kannada language). I do hope you will enjoy reading it as much as I did putting it all together. I love reading, music, gardening, and learning new things everyday. My passion is enhancing human potential and teaching people that they have to take responsibility for their own lives. In short, I am the Versatile Housewife.
