Where I’ve Been

I’ve been a little absent from this space. With working full time, running my Etsy shop on the side, being pregnant, and now as a new mother, life has definitely been busy! My style of cooking has shifted to making recipes that are familiar and uncomplicated. I’m lucky if I have the time to take a “glamour” shot (aka quick iPhone pic) for Instagram let alone post a step-by-step for this blog. However, I’ve found myself missing this little peaceful place I call my blog.

Writing, creating, and cooking is therapeutic for me. I love hearing from readers that they tried a recipe and liked it! My goal is to dust off the cobwebs and start posting helpful content again. My photos are not professionally staged or edited with fancy software but they are apologetically real. So much of my social media feed these days are very far from that. It’s impossible not to compare how clean their houses are or how well they are put together (how does that new mom have time to bathe herself, style her hair, wear heels, and put on a full face of makeup?). I’ve recently found myself drawn to influencers that are keeping it real. Life is messy and it’s refreshing to see the pile of laundry in the background or a plate of food that’s actually being consumed.

When you come visit, you can expect to read about what I’m into, motherhood, and food. Recipes I create, recipes I’ve found and love, tips I swear by, and places I’ve eaten at.

Cheers to an updated place to hangout with me!
