About

Basmala

I’m a British mummy of 6 beautiful children and wife of a wonderful Algerian man; we are currently living in Saudi Arabia.

My husband and children are my dedicated and ruthlessly honest taste-testers. I find myself cooking and baking a lot to keep these hungry tummies contented. I have also started experimenting and trying a lot of recipes I would never have thought of trying a few years ago so many of the things I cook find their way onto my blog eventually.

Hope you enjoy cooking with me!

P.S. I have another blog at Stranger in this Dunya

    Assalamu ‘alaykum wa Rahmatullah

    I love the title of your blog “A Thousand and One Bites”, Masha’Allah!

    I found a link to your blog on “…With a Saudi Accent.”
