I have always been interested in cooking and baking since I was a child watching my Grandma make full on 4 course meals for our entire family of 15 on a Christmas afternoon… And that didn’t include the hundreds of Christmas cookies she prepped for weeks leading up to the holiday.

If I have anyone to credit for my love for baking and cooking, it is her.

This blog found you for a reason, you are probably very similar to me or just like shortcuts when cooking. I am simply a get z girl who enjoys the full art of baking and cooking when I have the time, but will absolutely take all of the short cuts possible to get to the end result when I am hangry out of my mind and just want the food in front of me immediately.

I take pride in being the friend that people come to for a recipe or advice when cooking. I can’t tell you how many texts I’ve gotten like; “Hey Kennedy have you made this before?” “Do you have a suggestion for a quick meal I can make tomorrow?” “Can you send me your recipe for that cake you made for Thanksgiving?” I love being the point of contact when it involves food, it fuels me and gives me an ego boost like no other. As an August Leo I can fully admit to that.

Sharing my love for being in the kitchen and the planning that surrounds coming together over food is something that I have always wanted to do.

Here is a collection of my favorite recipes, event hosting ideas, tips and tricks, and maybe some shortcuts that I take in the kitchen so you can take them too. Cooking and baking should be fun and unserious, if you’re looking for serious maybe try elsewhere.

Oh, and one more thing. If you’re sick of clicking on a Pinterest recipe and having to fight through ads and videos and unnecessary blog posts just to get to the good stuff, feel free make yourself at home here :)

Welcome!
