Hello and welcome! I’m Connie Veneracion, retired lawyer and columnist, wife for 28 years, mom of two, and a passionate cook. CASA Veneracion is a journal of dishes we have cooked at home since 2003 when the first version of this blog was born.

If you’re a long-time reader and wondering why the featured recipes above are ones you’ve seen here before, well, my focus has shifted to travel stories, food tales and travel-inspired recipes. Then, there’s The Kitchen where I am compiling cooking tips and a practical guide about common cooking ingredients.

If you’re not into cooking, I invite you to see House on a Hill (home and garden) and The Cinephile (movies, TV and Netflix).

Have a nice time during your visit, and hope you come back soon.
