The Story

Hi! Thank you for stopping by. My name is Natalie and I have always been passionate about food. I am lucky enough to have tried a variety, which ignited my love for cooking. Since I started blogging about my food experiences, I have found such a sense of fulfillment in my own life. My goal is to help others navigate the sometimes daunting task of making a meal, from complicated and elaborate all the way down to the basics for the budding "chef". I am excited to share my cooking and food exploration with my loyal readers; so that we can learn and grow together.
