Who am I?

I’m a, wife, mother, daughter, photographer, enneagram 8w7 who values authenticity, my people, and real adventures above all.  I love Indian food, creating recipes, old polaroids, cerulean blue and can probably quote each episode of Friends.

What can you expect here?

In short, genuine honesty and creativity. Closing the wedding aspect of my business was something I felt necessary, but the creativity and artistry behind it remained a part of who I was and continue to be. Moving overseas with a family, I was surprised at how hard it was to re-figure out how to cook simple, healthy, delicious meals. My goal is to make expat cooking simple — and here you’ll find lots of tips like how I make 2 Ingredient Ricotta “Cheese” so that when you make your next lasagna, it’s just a little easier.

You’ll find a creative outlet for the recipes and food ideas that jump into my head at any given moment, a home for the many adventures our crew traverses, and, in doing so, my little online corner of hospitality.

Things I love:

  • Adoption!! It’s so beautiful and a huge part of our story

  • Coffee — I’m a sucker for light roasted, single origin, but in all honesty, I do not discriminate, ha.

  • Only Murders in The Building, The Office, Friends, Gilmore Girls, Never Have I Ever (am I a little ashamed to admit Vampire Diaries? yes)

  • Cooking Indian food — talking about it, cooking it, and sharing

  • Traveling and learning about new cultures — our girls are airport professionals, so feel free to ask me about my favorite hacks and tips

  • Entertaining and having folks in our home — sharing food and recipes together

  • Paris! We’ve spent 2 different layovers in the city, and both times Brodie and I ate allllll the pastries and espresso our hearts could handle.
