Another great day spent cooking up some food-love! Within a total of 4 hours this family gets food for the week for their growing boys to feast upon. I love cooking in their kitchen, listening to music, picking fresh greens from their garden and knowing that I am making nourishing meals for these awesome kids! […]
If you would have asked me when I was little if a fun Friday night entailed cooking beans for 40 people, I would have questioned that. However– with a little music, the windows open and the opportunity to feed people healthy-love-filled food…..it was indeed a Friday evening well spent! Beans for 40…… First, I soaked […]
A fun and relaxing bike day with the man all over the beautiful city of Austin. We had brunch out and about, took our first dunk of the season into Barton Springs, attended the Succulent Festival at Zilker Botanical Gardens, and managed to pick up a few ingredients on our way home to make some yummy […]
Every Thursday I get to spend time with the sweetest family. I menu plan, shop and cook food for the week. The best part, the kids have become interested in the process of cooking, they love to sample whatever I am concocting, and they beg for more veggie-loaded dishes:) Makes a girl happy! When I […]

Mark and I got home last night and it was one of those evenings where you wouldn’t wish to be anywhere else in the whole wide world except home, in your cozy little space.

We started off todays’ class watching a cute Easter video about the Easter bunny and egg hunting. We then talked about creating our own healthy Easter […]
Today was amazing! How can I explain how much I loved it? There was a point when all five boys at the home were surrounding me and BEGGING for more bell peppers and heirloom carrot samples and I thought, how cool is this?!! They wanted to participate, engage, taste and be a part of the “food […]
A family who I cook for gave me the honor of being their passover chef. Their closest family, all 20 of them, would be coming over for Sader and wanted to enjoy delicious and Passover-friendly foods. I was provided with a list of ingredients I could not use and then had to develop 4 side dishes of which […]
Nourishing Kids Classes are a great way to open up a dialogue with kids about real, clean, and delicious food. I have teamed up with Austin’s only all-kids yoga studio, The Little Yoga House, to add a food and nutrition segment to their Peace School program. From 9:15am to 10am we learn all about nourishing foods, play food-related […]
