About me

Welcome to Meri's Cookingtime

S omething about me … Something about me. I was born in Germany, in a beautiful small town - Radolfzell am Bodensee. Already as small children my sister and I went to Belgium, where she attended school and I went to kindergarten. However, we didn't stay long and came back, so I went to kindergarten in Radolfzell. It was there that I discovered my first great love, cooking. In kindergarten we used to get some dough to make pastry and at home my mum would often knead dough for biscuits, so I discovered my love and passion in the kitchen very early. My mum worked as a cook for many years, so I was always surrounded by food and I often went to my mum's work place, only to see all those cooks working there. We had cookery lessons at school, which were waking my curiosity more and more. All those smells, colours, and especially flavours – simply incredible. So, my first love started and it still lives in me, and because of that I want to share my little knowledge with you. Of course, I didn't make recipes I shoot and write for you, I found them in various cookery books, in the Internet and I modify some of them. Only a few more details about me to finish with this and to start cooking ... Several years later we moved to Croatia, where I completed my education. Now my family and I live at the seaside, which is very important to me, because I adore water, either sea, river or lake. We are surrounded by mountains and other forms of natural beauty, so we enjoy each day. I have three children: Gabrijela, Michael and Samanta and not to forget my better half Siniša. Siniša and my sister are major culprits for my shooting and writing this blog, they kept telling me I should start shooting, so it all started and I hope you will like "my recipes".
