About

Hi! I’m Lisa. I was born in Chicago, grew up in Chicago, LA, and Cape Cod. I’ve only been to one out-of-country island – Bermuda. I’m expanding my journeys to other places in the US and other parts of the world now that my children are grown and out of the house (well, almost).

I love to create dishes from sight and taste. I rarely follow recipes when it comes to savory food. I think everyone’s pallet is different. I love reading recipes and alternating ingredients with what I have in the fridge or pantry. This is where I get artistic.

I definitely follow recipes for baking though. Baking is a precise science, which is what I love about it. There is something to be said about how yeast reacts with flour and water, or how baking soda and baking powder do different things.

Come with me on this journey. I hope you can find your own flavors!

In line with my love of fresh food, fast meal prep, making real connections, and saving time and money, I also work(s) as an Independent Consultant with Pampered Chef. I’ve used the cooking tools, training, recipes, and tips from Pampered Chef to create mealtime moments with family and friends everyday, and occasionally I will share my favorite ones with you here on this blog!
