About Me

Do you like to cook? bake? eat out? or just…eat?

Well, I do! I am passionate about all things culinary. Baking is my hobby. Eating is my past time. And enjoying food & drink with friends & family is what makes my world go ’round.

I love creating delicious recipes and try to incorporate healthy aspects whenever I can. That way, you can still treat yourself, but you’re also getting some nutrients at the same time!

A little more about me..

I grew up in Massachusetts (GO PATS) and moved to Washington, DC for college at The George Washington University. I lived in a few different apartments around the city for about 8 years, and now live in the beautiful Old Town, Virginia, just outside the city.
I’m a triplet.
My dog’s name is Pippa. She’s a pomeranian Shi Tzu mix, but I call her a mini golden retriever.
I love to run and have run 2 marathons and a handful of other races around the area.
I’d rather be hot than cold.
I eat pie for breakfast on the day after Thanksgiving.
I love the Fast & Furious movies, Pitch Perfect movies, and the Ocean’s 11, 12, and 13 movies.
Growing up I collected the seasons of Friends on DVD. I got one new season as a gift on both my birthday and Christmas…and now I have the show on repeat on Netflix in the background almost every day.
The top locations on my international travel list right now are Australia, Thailand, and Italy.
The top locations on my domestic travel list right now are, Portland, OR; Portland, ME; Charleston, SC (already have been but want to go back); and Raleigh, NC.
I love going to breweries and wineries.

Favorites:
My favorite thing to bake is bars, namely, brownies, blondies, bourbon chocolate pecan bars, carrot cake bars, peanut butter bars…I mean, the options are endless!
Favorite food: Chocolate.
Favorite not sweet food: Burgers. With a runny egg and avocado. Yesss
Favorite DC restaurant: The Fainting Goat, Founding Farmers, Glen’s, & Duke’s Grocery.
Favorite DC Dessert to buy out: Salty Oat Cookie at Teaism, and Gooey Cake at The Hamilton. OMG. It’s hard to tell how incredible the Gooey Cake is from reading it on the menu. You’ve gotta just go for it. It tastes like gooey melty warm birthday cake with chocolate swirls and ice cream on top….drooling….
Favorite DC-MD-VA brewery: Flying Dog
Favorite DC-MD-VA winery: Barboursville Vineyards and Stone Tower Winery
Favorite color: Honestly it depends on the mood. Growing up, I was the purple girl. I love a bright blue. Or a sunny yellow…..
Favorite holiday: Christmas 🙂
