Linda Nortje lives in Johannesburg, Gauteng, a Province of South-Africa with her husband Roy. She has two kids, both in their late twenties. As well as two adorable grandkids, one born in March 2019 and the other in June 2022.

Linda studied Criminal Profiling, but due to a chronic illness had to end her studies midway.

Her love for experimenting with recipes, old and new, started after Linda left the corporate world in 2002. But only took up blogging some years later when both kids had left school and she had more time to invest in something she had come to love.
