The year 2012 boosted my confidence in trying out things I could never ever have imagined doing in the wildest of my dreams. Taking on food photography, styling projects, meddling with HTML codes, baking 100 plus cookies…yes, I did it all.
I wish to start the year with a sweet beginning and a hope for better tomorrow for everyone.
