The chronicles of an American mommy living in French Canada,

 finding sanity through love and humor in the family and the kitchen.

These days, it seems, I spend most of my days in the kitchen. And believe it or not, this is by choice.. I mean, if you had asked me 6 years ago if I liked cooking, (let alone did it), I would have probably responded with something like, wait, what’s that??. The kitchen has become, for me, a place where I can focus. Where I can get creative. Where I can try new things. Where I can put on music and get messy and make mistakes and sip on some delicious red wine while doing it, of course. And then, the best part at the end of all of this, is that I get to feed my people. And that grounds me and brings focus and calm and peace into my crazy, short, often stressful days.

This is my personal blog where you might find some fun, easy recipes, favorite wine picks, occasional rants on mommy-hood, cute kids clothes, DIY’s, a little insight on the Quebec culture, and whatever else I am feeling like talking about(which could be just about anything).

Thanks for popping in!
