    ABOUT

    Welcome to the Savvy Homebody, whether you are "Home and Hungry" or "Savvy and Home", you are in right place for homeyness. My name is Andrea and I am a huge FOODIE and HOMEBODY.

    I've always had a passion for food and love love to cook and bake at home. It all started from childhood learning and cooking with my dad, mom, aunts, uncle, and extended family. Learning turned into the love of cooking and baking for others, like my brothers, cousins, friends, and at special family events. My Caribbean background and living in the NY/NJ Area made me love cooking and eating even more.

    Also having over 15 years of amazing "non traditional" experience in the food industry, everything from taking a few culinary courses in the Caribbean, high school, and community college in New Jersey. To waiting tables and bartending at numerous restaurants in Newark Airport. It's been quite an adventure.

    Now here I am sharing my passion with the world, it's a dream come true. I want to THANK YOU for stopping by my digital HOME and supporting my very small business of two (me and my rock & love of my life my husband).
