Meet Olivia! I'm the creative founder, photographer and "chef" of Olivia's Cuisine. I am originally from Sao Paulo, Brazil, and I currently live in New York. I am recently married, living the newly wed bliss (most of the time!) with my husband, Tim. He's the one having to try and judge every single thing I make in the kitchen, helping me choose photos, reviewing my posts (I'm a foreigner after all, so I do make lots of mistakes!), washing the dishes and running to the grocery store when I realize I don't have something I need. He's the one tells me everything will be ok, makes me laugh and helps me be a better person everyday. Olivia's Cuisine is a place where I express my adventures in the kitchen, a friendly place where readers can browse through my experiences and find /nurture their passion for cooking. I learned how to cook with my grandmother and with my mother. I crashed and burned a lot, as I'm sure many of you also did. I had times when I thought I would never be able to make something, as it always turned out bad… My husband is the one who usually pushes me forward saying I will eventually master it, and guess what? He's usually right!Everyone can cook if they do it with love. I want you, my readers, to know that I have lots of love for this work I'm doing. You can always reach me with questions, critiques, suggestions, requests and pretty much anything else. Please let me know if you've made my recipes (either on Facebook, Twitter, through the site comments or email!) and what you thought of it!
