About Amber Johnstone of Sweet, Sour & Savoury


I am one of five children and I have  a twin sister, a single sister and another set of twins, brother and sister. When very young my mother told me about healthy eating and it grew into a goal for me.   My sisters and brother would see my mother or father cooking and run off to play but I saw more. I saw an opportunity to help and I began to love mixing, stirring, pouring, sprinkling and making up  my own recipes. I started to make dinner for my siblings and from then felt responsible for something I really enjoyed.

I would like to achieve a world of healthy eating people, to not fill our bodies with things that our mind may like but not our stomachs nor heart. Our heart is the key to a good life and listening to what it really wants to eat is, I believe, a great habit. We love healthy food in our home and at the same time we also believe it's good to have a treat or chocolate every once in a while because what makes you happy is also important. So we aim for balance... Happiness is the food of the soul and the soul is the true YOU! Welcome to my Sweet, Sour & Savour blog of recipes.
