“Let’s be courageous in these days. Let’s choose love and rest and grace. Let’s use our minutes and hours to create memories with the people we love…I pray that we’ll live with intention, hope, and love in this wild season and in every season, and that the God who loves us will bring new life to our worn-out hearts this year and every year, that we’ll live, truly and deeply, in the present, instead of waiting, waiting, waiting for perfect.” – Shauna Niequist, Bread & Wine
I’ve read this quote that inspired the name of my blog over and over, and I always want to say “Amen” at the end. Each new season we step into feels wild in a new way. We’re always learning something new, struggling through our mistakes, figuring out what it means to live in the present rather than constantly looking forward to the next best thing. Through all these wild seasons, working in the kitchen is a constant – it’s a way we celebrate, escape from the stress of a long day, find new creativity, and bring our friends and family together. I am by no means an expert in the kitchen, but I love learning, and I love sharing what I’ve learned with others.
This blog is a place to share what I’m learning in the kitchen and outside of it. I’d love for you to join me in learning, growing, and trying new things! Feel free to take the recipes and DIY projects shared here and make them your own! Let me know how they turn out for you in the comments. Keep up with what I’m working on by following me on Facebook, Pinterest, and Instagram!

My husband and I were professional wedding photographers and videographers for over 10 years. You can find our work over at Grain & Compass, as well as on our Vimeo page. We have taken a big step back from that business as our family grows, and I’m so grateful to be able to stay home with our kiddos while they are young.
I also had the opportunity to co-author a handlettering book a few years ago. You can find DIY Handlettering
