Hi, I’m Lisa — a home cook, mom, and lifelong believer in the magic of meals made with love.
This site began with a simple idea: to capture the joy I feel when cooking with my son, Daniel.
It all started when Daniel was just tall enough to peek over the countertop. He’d drag a stool over, climb up beside me, and ask, “Can I help?” At first, he stirred pancake batter or rolled cookie dough with chubby little hands. But over time, he started doing more — chopping, tasting, experimenting. Cooking became our language, our connection.
What began as a way to teach him the basics became something deeper — a shared ritual, a space where we could talk about life, laugh at our kitchen disasters, and celebrate the small things. We’ve made a lot of messes, burned a few things, and invented some surprisingly amazing meals. And through it all, we’ve built memories that I’ll treasure forever.
This blog is our story — told one recipe at a time.
Here you’ll find cozy comfort food, family favorites, and dishes inspired by seasons, moods, and Sunday cravings. It’s not about fancy techniques or picture-perfect plates. It’s about the warmth that fills a kitchen when people cook together.
Whether you’re a fellow parent, a new cook, or just someone who loves a good homemade meal, we hope you feel at home here.
Thanks for being part of our story.
With love,
Lisa (and Daniel, always nearby with a spoon in hand)
