ABOUT

Welcome to my table.

When I was a little girl, my mom and neighbor would meet for hours every morning after my dad left for work. We referred to her as Grandma Helen. I am sure they drank at least a pot of coffee everyday. They spent the time discussing past and present family stories, current events, and what to make for dinner. It was my first experience of witnessing the bonds that are made over the kitchen table.

Some of the best times happen in your best friend’s kitchen.

ABOUT ME

I am a wife and mother. I love to cook. I am a late bloomer. I finished my bachelor’s degree 30 years after I started. Three years later, I finished my master’s degree in Communication. Whether you have been cooking all your life or just starting out, you belong here. There is always so much to learn from others.

I live with my husband, Steve, and two golden retrievers. Just a few blocks away lives my daughter, Katie and grand doodle. I am grateful for her millennial perspective to social media. This site has been a dream of mine for many, many years.
