Hi! My name is Samantha, and I’m so glad you’ve stopped by. This website is a way to share the recipes I’ve been cooking for my family with my friends near and far. A greater-Seattle area transplant from Michigan, I love being able to share ideas with my forever friends, previously unknown friends and everyone in between.

I’m always on the lookout for new recipes, new techniques and new ways to get my young children to eat their vegetables. The food you find here is mostly made from scratch, but always made with love.

We don’t venture out of the country or even out of the kitchen often to eat, but I try to introduce my family to flavors from around the world as often as I get the chance.
