About Me, My Website and the Humanitarian Organizations

I am an Ethiopian, married, a mother of three children, a grandmother and a New Yorker. For decades, I was working full time. At one point, I was a student too. However, nothing changes my love of cooking for my family every day, including my relatives and friends. In general, my hobby is cooking and creating my own twist to any food I have tasted.

The other matter close to my heart is the humanitarian issues that exist in Africa and around the world due to conflicts and natural disasters.
