I started my career as a speech correctionist and for many years taught children with learning as well as physical disabilities. Although my initial career choice had nothing to do with food, this passion for food and cooking had been instilled in me from a very young age. My Mom and Gran are excellent cooks in their own right and the social aspect of food has always played a large role in our home.

www.my-easy-cooking.com “My husband suggested that I started a website to make my arsenal of food knowledge available to everybody. For a complete computer novice like me, that was quite achallenge, but through trial and error I have managed to put a few websites together that I can be proud of.”
This is what my PR people wrote:
“My Easy Cooking is a phenomenon in the South African blogging and amateur food photography. Genetically pre disposed to cook and entertain with wholesome enthusiasm. She has over a few years built up a cult following of folks from all over the world who are continually amazed by the variety of recipes, ideas and tips she disseminates with gay abandon. A wife and mother of 2 she has every meal scored with or without her asking and anything scoring 7 or less does not get published on her site www.my-easy-cooking.com (only one in 2 years!!)
As part of the ‘PR campaign” surrounding her talent, she started blogging on Food24,Facebooking and Twitting and above all expectations she has in less than a year become their #1 ranked blogger.
She has been a featured publisher on Foodbuzz and has been Referred in the Woolworths Taste magazine as site with best food Photography. She has been an ambassador for Kleine Zalze Wines and a finalist in The Fairview cheese Bloggers Competition. Nina tries not to get involved with
Competitions “I believe that there are many that are specialists at Specific dishes or genres. I prefer to aim for high quality consistency and images-constantly pushing my abilities and my readers taste buds” even though this is Nina’s outlook, this has not stopped her from being nominated for the food blog of the year twice. She was a guest speaker at the first SAFB Conference in early 2010 and was privileged to be a special guest at the Eat In as well as the Eat Out Awards. She has had the privilege of ending of the Year by being invited to test Reuben Riffle’s new menu at the One & Only in the V&A
in Cape Town. Nina is a South African cook at heart but more often than not she will Fuse her dishes with a Mediterranean flavor or go all out international where she introduces readers to things they barely are able to spell let alone believe they could make it. Proof of her Cape Town roots
is her most read post for Breyani which had in excess of 27 000 hits over 48 hours."
