| Introduction | Hello! This is me, BaL, whom most of you knows well, and some of you have no idea about! Got a degree on sociology (from Istanbul University). Later on I joined the master’s degree program on my major however I couldn’t stand the period at the end of the 3rd year of master’s. I’ve given a break for the thesis. I decided to get married in this break time. I got married to Feridun Bingor on 10th of May 2009. This means that I'm now cooking in my own kitchen! About to start my own job with husband soon. Not surprising but it is going to be on ‘gourmet teas & coffees’, and organic food. I’m also interested in tourism, and I’ll be organizing tours to Karadeniz (Black Sea region) in Turkey in 2009. I love food. Anything about food. That’s why I call myself not a gourmet (but) a ‘foodie’. Life is full of miracles, and food is just a piece of them. So I try not to skip a single chance to have my share on this magic world. Now you are in the world of a lunatic foodie. You will find my other interests, and things I love as you start reading my blog. I hope you will all have a good time here, and join the crowd who loves me! |
