About Us

Our Family

I live with my wonderful husband, David, and our two amazing kids. We are a happy, busy, and sometimes messy family, just like yours! We laugh a lot, cook together, plant flowers and tomatoes in our garden, and try to make our home a warm and cozy place filled with love.

I started this blog back in 2020. That year was hard for many of us. Everything slowed down, and we all stayed home more. But it was also a year of learning, creating, and thinking deeply about what really matters.

How It All Began

One evening, while cooking dinner in our little kitchen, I told David, “Wouldn’t it be great to share what we do here—our food, our parenting stories, our home ideas—with others?”

David smiled and said, “Yes, let’s do it.”

And that’s how the idea for My Home and Kitchen was born.

We had no idea how to build a blog, but we were excited. We spent our evenings learning about blogging, writing, taking photos, and figuring out how to make a website. We made mistakes (a lot!), but we also learned so much. Every post came from our hearts, and little by little, the blog started to grow.

What You’ll Find Here

This blog is a big mix of everything we love at home. It’s like our family journal. Here are the kinds of things you’ll find:

Food & Recipes

Cooking is one of my biggest passions. I love making simple, delicious meals for my family. Here on the blog, you’ll find easy recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, desserts, and even holiday meals. I share recipes that anyone can make, no matter your cooking level.

Some of our favorites are pasta dishes, fresh salads, cozy soups, and homemade cookies. We also share lots of tips for meal prep, cooking with kids, and kitchen shortcuts.

Garden & Outdoor Fun

Our little backyard is our happy place. We love planting herbs, veggies, and colorful flowers. In this section, I write about gardening ideas, DIY garden projects, and fun ways to get kids involved in growing things.

Even if you live in an apartment with just a balcony, there’s something here for you too.

Home & Decor

Making our home feel comfy and pretty brings me so much joy. I share simple decorating tips, cleaning hacks, organizing ideas, and seasonal home makeovers. You don’t need a big budget to make your home feel special, just a little love and creativity.

Parenting & Family Life

Being a mom is the most important part of my life. I love talking about parenting, sharing stories about our kids, and giving real advice that comes from experience. From bedtime struggles to fun family traditions, I talk about it all here.

We’re not perfect, but we’re real. And I hope that helps you feel like you’re not alone in this parenting journey.

Holidays & Celebrations

We LOVE holidays! Every season, we find ways to celebrate—whether it’s baking cookies for Christmas, decorating pumpkins in the fall, or planning a backyard picnic in the summer.

Why We Love Blogging

I started My Home and Kitchen because I wanted to reach people like you (moms, dads, kids, families, friends) who want to make their homes a little warmer, their kitchens a little tastier, and their days a little brighter.

It’s been so special to hear from readers around the world who tried our recipes, started gardening with their kids, or simply enjoyed reading one of our stories. Your support means the world to us.

A Family Project

Even though I’m the main writer here, this blog is a family effort. David helps with tech stuff, fixing the website when I mess something up. Our kids love being “taste testers” for recipes. Sometimes they even help me take pictures or give silly quotes that make it into the posts.

It’s a team effort, and that’s what makes it so special.

My Mission

At My Home and Kitchen, I believe that home is more than just a place, it’s a feeling. It’s where we cook together, eat together, grow together, and share love every day.

My goal is to help you create that warm, happy feeling in your own home. Whether you’re a new parent, a beginner cook, or someone looking to make life a little sweeter, I hope you find something here that inspires you.
