I have lived, worked and enjoyed food and cultures from all over the world, including Germany, Italy, Sweden, Nepal, Togo, Costa Rica, Uzbekistan, England and now the United States of America. But it wasn’t until my husband’s job took us to Atlanta in 2009 that I actually started cooking on a daily basis. At first, I felt a little overwhelmed with the task I set for myself: Preparing a delicious, wholesome meal all of us at the dinner table would enjoy together. 

Cooking became my creative outlet and what seemed daunting quickly has become a passion: I love looking for new recipes to try out, putting them to the test with my four hungry eaters at home, and once approved by this very critical board, I love sharing them with friends. I also really enjoy passing on the cooking skills that I’ve developed and the myriad of helpful tips and tricks when it comes to planning, shopping, prepping and cooking for a busy family and friends.

New recipes & skills

Cooking on a daily basis is not as difficult or challenging as I thought when I first started out in 2009. Planning ahead, picking easy recipes, developing “heavy rotation’ recipes – these are just a few ideas that will help you and your family to enjoy more mealtimes together. Check out my blog for new easy family friendly recipes and take a look at the services we offer – all designed to help you cook more frequently, deliciously and efficiently.

Prepare & share

Embark on a journey of flavors, experiment with taste sensations, cook together, eat together and just “be” with your family. Along the way, make your child(-ren) part of the adventure. Involve them in choosing the menu for the week, let them help you cook and set the table, and allow them to give their constructively critical feedback. Once instilled this passion for wholesome, tasty food will last a life time. It’s a wonderful legacy to share with your kids.

Be inspired

There is compelling scientific evidence regarding the positive effects of regular family meals on both academic performance and social behavior. And while the dynamics of family meals certainly change as your kids grow it is our goal to inspire you to develop your own meal time routines and rituals. Allow yourself the space and time to have conversations that matter and that will strengthen your relationships und keep your family together.
