Sorry the recap is a little late this week. Friday was spent running lots of errands. Saturday was spent doing lots of cooking. Today was spent doing lots of cleaning. Hopefully that means I now have a clean condo, lots of recipes to post, and my to-do list checked off. Other than that not too much has been happening in the life of Goofy. J and I will be taking a short trip back to Southern California next month. I’m stoked. I haven’t been there in over two years. My in-laws live there and we have a few friends to visit. Also we’ll be scoping out some possible places to move next summer. If you are a blogger in the area and want to meet-up let me know. I’d love to meet some fellow bloggers. I hope everyone has a wonderfully relaxing Sunday!

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.
