well, here we are, welcome to DIFFERENTLY COOKING!
this blog is mainly dedicated to kitchen, and we post recipes.
most of these recipes are translations from my mother's great blog, Cucinando Senza(literally 'Cooking Without'), a blog about healthy vegan\vegetarian kitchen, because she doesn't know english well and so she asked me to translate her posts...however this blog is mine and i like cooking, so i'll post recipes of mine too.

...so, let's go!
