We are Dan and Joy.

We’ve both discovered our passion for food and cooking after we started dating. Who knew? A couple who has avoided the kitchen after decades is now warming up to it, literally. Join us in our journey with food and cooking, and our everyday foray into different dishes–East meets West meets gourmet. We enjoy discovering new dishes and ingredients, kitchen gadgets, restaurants and books on food, cooking, and sustainability. We offer original and adapted recipes that we truly enjoy, and honest opinions on things that you might enjoy as well. What started out as a website for us to share recipes and photos with our friends and family, has spun into a place where we found more friends and found a family in the internet where we can all share our common love for good food. Welcome to Gourmeted.com, our virtual kitchen! Let’s get cooking!

Dan and Joy are busy computer geeks by day, and professional eaters/consumers and amateur cooks after office hours. Joy’s other creative endeavors online include: Fwoosh.com (for photography and travel) and Blisscake.net (for arts, crafts, and pretty things).
