Hi! I’m so happy you’re here.
I’m Kate, a self-taught cook & photographer who’s completely obsessed with food. My recipes are inspired by the seasons, the mountains, and feeding the people I love. I hope you discover a passion for cooking & try a new favorite!
I believe recipes should be fun and flexible, healthy enough to feel good and nourish our bodies, brimming with cozy comfort flavors. Food occupies most of my thoughts; I devour cookbooks, blogs, and articles about food science. I daydream about new recipes and what to cook next. I want every post to burst with my passion for delicious food and time in the kitchen, balancing nutrition with indulgence.
My life in the Colorado mountains is shared with my husband, Kirk, and our puppy, Scout, where we spend every spare moment outdoors. We’re forever fixing up our tiny 1900 miner’s cabin and constantly learning as we growing our little homestead. When I’m not cooking or writing about food, I’m usually enjoying a beer by the campfire and thinking about what to eat with that beer.
In short, this blog is about celebrating good food with the people you love.
