About Me
Hi! My name is Kate and I have been cooking for my family for 12 years now. I have also worked in many restaurants doing just about anything you could imagine in a kitchen but it’s my real world and daily life experiences that I’ll be bringing to you through this blog.
I started cooking domestically 12 years ago when I first moved in with my boyfriend, Brent. It was at that time that I really discovered what a picky eater was and how hard it was to cook for someone who didn’t like vegetables, or only liked certain vegetables raw. I thought that I had met my match until 9 years later when we had our first little girl, Paige.
Paige is a princess that truly knows what she likes! The only problem is that it changes on a daily basis! Being a typical 3-year-old (at least in her food habits,) Paige will only eat bananas and chicken nuggets one day only to want nothing to do with them the next day when it’s all about broccoli and cheese! And then there’s Maddie.
Maddie will be turning 2 this year and I’m hoping that I can pass on my appreciative palate on to her but it’s not looking good so far. Maddie likes very specific foods and if dinner does not involve any of them, she’s perfectly content to sip on her milk and let another meal pass her by.
And me? I like it all! If you fry something, grill something, sauté something, or bake something, the chances are that I will eat it! I love food and love experimenting with different tastes and textures and the crazier a recipe is, the better for me! The only thing I never, ever will cook is shellfish and that’s only due to an allergy.
So you see what my problem is being a cook who wants to create wonderful masterpieces but having a family that only wants to eat the basics. Here I’ll show you how easy it is to incorporate the same love of food you have with the same kind of picky eaters that I have!
