Hello,
Welcome to Lite Bite!
I am Sanjeeta kk, author of this blog. A forty plus mom with a bucketful of dreams and a ray of hope to fulfill them some day. One such dream is nurturing my passion for food blogging and food photography through Lite Bite.
Subjects related to food, art and photography always excited me. Lack of opportunities, higher studies, college and work life put a hold on the things I loved doing. Marriage in 1996, and life got busy managing two children and a beautiful home. But recipe jottings from magazines, collecting cook books, and trying out new recipes never stopped. These are some of the activities which kept me bonded with my first love – Food.
It took me years to break free from the shackles of the procrastination and follow my passion. The journey was not smooth for this forty plus mom who was neither a tech savvy nor a gadget lover. But then as they say, a person can succeed in almost anything for which they have unlimited enthusiasm.
Lite Bite happened in 2009. I found this platform a perfect ‘place to string the beads of happiness together and keep my passion alive’. Sharing small moments and stories of my life through my food made me happier. Food for sure is nostalgic, comforting & an important factor to connect with people and make community. And I now have an amazing list of intellectual and creative friends from across the world to boast.
‘Happiness consists in activities’ and I soon found myself dabbling in amateur content writing and learning the technicalities behind maintaining a blog. As I strolled along creating new recipes and trying out the old favorites I found new challenges in terms of digital photography and creative food styling.
So here is this passionate foodie donning the roles of a full time cook, amateur writer, novice photographer, fledgling food stylist for this blog Lite Bite, apart from being a doting wife managing two hyperactive children at home….yes, my hands are full now
And life is interesting….
FAQ about Lite Bite..

This blog shares vegetarian recipes, egg less baking and low cal festive desserts which are easy and might help many who are short on time yet value their health.

Health bite is to bring forward my views and experiences on health & fitness, the way I perceive them through Food that heal and Eating Right.
Be happy and stay away from negative thoughts, “a light heart makes for an easy life”. Welcome to Lite bite with this very first step.

A plain Jane who completed her masters in business management & economics when Robert Clive ruled India
