Hi,
My name is Victoria, and I like to cook. Once in a while I host dinner parties for my friends with my boyfriend in our place. I do the cooking, he does the dishwashing. It's a mutually beneficial relationship that way.

While I did not grow up at home learning how to cook from my mom, my sister and I actually love making food once we had our own kitchens.

I've done quite a lot of cooking with some of my dear friends in San Francisco since high school, and whenever I have a chance to visit them again.

| Burmese food... tastier than it looks! |
I moved to Chicago to start a new life, and I met Xiao, and together we check out restaurants that serve culinary delights and I search and read up on dishes and some cooking blogs that have opened my eyes to a bounty of flavors in the kitchen, inspiring me to recreate or redesign a dish to suit my taste.

While I feel like a jack of all trades, I also feel like I am a master of none. In some ways it is neat that I am multi-talented, but I also want to get progressively better at my hobbies. I have narrowed them down to cooking and art, with music as a third option some day.

| If my friends visit me and want to eat my food, I put them to work in the kitchen! |

During working hours, I am an engineer working on international safety and standard guidelines, dental research, and collaborative projects with dental students at universities nearby.

My life is very hands on and creative, and I always hope to either push more in one direction or another of my creativity.
It's kind of funny that there is a default Victoria's Secret theme for a blog. So that's what I'll use :)
