I’m a mom to an energetic little boy and wife to a guy that also happens to be my business partner, living in the Chicago metropolitan area. Gardening, photography, camping, and local food are some of my passions. I love to open up a food magazine and jump into cooking a brand new recipe, I’m passionate about farmers markets, and I swoon at the sight of a Cherokee Purple tomato. This blog is a collection of favorite recipes, and a photo journal of places we have gone and things we’ve enjoyed.
