About

My name is Alice, I am 30 years old . At the moment I live in UK with my husband and moved in here from Italy, 2 years ago after we got married. We enjoy travelling, house decorating, taking photos but most of all we love food, as we are always looking to explore and cook new everyday healthy food.

I love studying foreign languages, translation, linguistics, shopping and watching movies on my sofa, he likes science, numbers, gardening, going to the gym  but what we have in common is the strength we give each other,  every time we are in front of challenges and obstacles.

We strongly believe that if among all problems you manage to find one single positive open window then it should give you the hope that at the end of the day, the so-called half empty or half full glass is just a glass with water in it.

Cherish every moment in life. Carpe Diem.

  3. Such a lovely blog. I’ve made the mistake of licking my screen a couple of times. Strangely, it is not nearly as satisfying as I thought it might be.

  5. Thank you for visiting my very new blog, and liking my posts I appreciate it :)!

    I’ve had a quick look around your blog and I am loving all of your photos! It isn’t easy taking good photos of food but I really like yours! I was wondering if you could help a newbie out?

    I’ve been trying to figure out how you can get only part of a post to show up on the main page of you blog so that people need to click on the link to the actual post to view it. I noticed your front page layout looks amazing so if there is a way to do could you let me know or is it just certain themes that allow it?

    Anyway I look forward to seeing more of your posts and thanks again for being one of the first to visit my page! 🙂

      1. Also, there’s something I want to ask you if its alright? How do you build your community, get so many likes and views on your blog? I’m really struggling and I’ve already done a lot of the main stuff like posting facebook and social media, regular and (daresay) interesting updates and whatnot. Any advice would be great. Thanks a bunch! x

      2. Hello My Uni Kitchen, I started blogging not a long ago and I am loving every single day of it as I have the possibility to share my recipes and photography with people who share the same interests with me. I believe that it is very important (crucial) to have a good quality content, be 100% yourself and always consider that you are a part of a community of people who share the same things you are sharing. So I am always curious to know and read other blogs content. I think that blogging should be always followed by the excitement and enthusiasm. I am very grateful and delighted that other bloggers like my posts and understand my love for food and cooking.
        I really hope I helped you a little bit with my answer!
        Best wishes,
        Alice

  8. Hi Alice, thank you for liking my post about a week back. As you might have realised by now, am not a frequent haunter of my own blog space! I just had a chance to go through yours – and I must say, it’s gorgeous. The recipes look yum, and buying a microwave is soon on my agenda [for now, I cook on burners only]. So, can’t wait to try these out 🙂

    Cheers!

    1. Hi Madhvi,
      Thanks a lot for your nice comment, I generally don’t use the microwave, instead I prefer using the oven and hob,
      More traditional, more funny and definitely healthier 🙂

      Alice

  13. Hi Alice, great blog, lovely recipes! Thank you for liking my recent post, Banana and Chocolate Chip Cake on my blog Mix + Beat. I really like the idea of a ‘translation’ feature, I think it’s great, I didn’t know about this feature until seeing it here on your blog. I also like how the recipe index page is set out with pictures to click on which lead to the recipe. These are two great ideas I’ll look into for my blog. Thank you!
