About Us

We’re sisters, Laura and Barb, who grew up in a culture where food was the language of love. Not all the food we ate as children was particularly gourmet, but there was always plenty and always enough to share with drop-in guests. Now that we each have our own kitchen in our own home (in our own state, I might add), we find we walk the ancient paths of women who nourish those we love.

  • Hi!

    I was wondering do you have dairy free recipes that kids would love?

    Thank you!

  • Stephanie, we haven’t really focused on dairy-free recipes although there are a few. We have very non-picky-eating children, so my kids like pretty much everything I make. I don’t really know what the “average” kid will eat and can only suggest that you try recipes and encourage them to at least try what you’ve made.

    Good luck,

    Barbara

  • Hi! I am having an at home shopping party (e.g. Silpada) and am looking for some good ideas for easy appetizers for my guests. Any suggestions? Thanks!! Polly

  • Polly, we have an entire category for appetizers. If you click on that category, that should take you to a plethora of posts on yummy treats. Thanks for visiting.
