i’m tina, your friendly TX blogger, content creator, and cookbook author.

my story

how it all began

I started my very first blog in 2010. I have always loved to write. With a 2.5-year-old and a newborn at home, I was looking for a creative outlet. Over the years, I think I’ve written about every topic under the sun, trying new things, learning new crafts, skills, and finding new passions along the way. However, if you go back to my very first few blog posts, one constant has remained true, I am an old soul. I’ve ALWAYS loved and longed for the simpler days. The days spent standing with your grandma cooking in the kitchen. Afternoons spent sipping tea in the garden after picking a full harvest. Quiet evenings around the dinner table with your loved ones.

Fast forward to today, I still feel like there is space for simpler, quiet moments in this hectic thing we call life. Now more than ever, there is a growing need to understand how to nourish your body with good food, promoting longevity and a vibrant life. I am committed to educating you on how to achieve that, with content that inspires, empowers, and uplifts.

Furthermore, through this journey, I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with brands that share my vision for a healthier and more intentional way of living. These partnerships have allowed me to bring you even more inspiration and resources to embrace the beauty of a homegrown and homemade lifestyle.

I know we live in a fast-paced world, but it is my hope that you can take a pause, breathe in deeply, and leave this blog feeling renewed and inspired. I have found such joy in sharing my love for these things with the world and hope that you find joy and intention in each visit. My mission is crystal clear; to empower you to lead a healthier, more fulfilling life.

Life is beautiful. Savor the moments.

xoxo, Tina
