Hello! My name is Karen, I’m 26 and currently live in Austin, Texas with my husband. When I’m not working as a nanny, you can usually find me in the kitchen. This blog is where I share my love of cooking, nutrition, and domestication. I'll share my favorite recipes, how-to-photos, and any tips and tricks I pick-up along the way. I hope this blog inspires others to spend more time in the kitchen cooking delicious food. While I strive for optimal nutrition, I also love to bake. I've recently got gluten free and dairy free, as well as refocused my diet on mostly plant based nutrients with high-quality meats for protein. I hope this blog inspires others to get back into the kitchen.
