In May of 2023, I walked away from my Spanish-teaching career in order to pursue things that are closer to my heart. You will still see small elements of Spanish in my content, like “Hola y’all”, because it has been such a huge part of my life and I choose to keep the memory of it alive in small ways.

I’ve always loved to cook and try new foods and my ability to share that with others is quite fun! I come from a family that is talented in the kitchen, enjoys home-made meals, and centers our visits around new things to try or old favorites! Making food for people is just one of the many ways that I personally show my affection. You will find delicious recipes here that are family friendly, picky-kid (and husband) approved, and easy to make!

Just because I walked away from public education doesn’t mean that I don’t still teach. I have had a passion for God and the Bible ever since I was a child and I currently teach adult Sunday School at my local church. I started an at-home Bible study (basically) with my “A Walk with God” series. This is dedicated to life lessons, practical ways to live for God today, personal testimony, and a deep dive into the word of God. You can Join me EVERY.SINGLE.DAY. on YouTube. And look here for weekly/monthly installments of popular walks.

Last, but certainly not least, I’m a lover of family. I come from a big family, and I am the youngest of 5 children. I have 3 kids of my own and try very diligently to be a very present and loving mom. I am a believer of exposure and enjoy showing my kids the world, new foods, and exciting experiences.

I think that, in general, being happy and positive are two of my strongest qualities. I look around and see so much to be thankful for and I want to take advantage of every moment. I love to travel and I’m always up for a challenge or adventure. That’s what keeps me YOUNG! (HA)

In my opinion, life is meant to be lived to the fullest. And on my journey, I want to enrich the lives of others as much as possible. Whether that’s teaching people how to cook, sharing my favorite recipes, showing what my life looks like or encouraging them to get to know God on a more personal level and deepen their faith. I want to set the example for my children and others to follow as they make their way through this world.

My Peaceful retreat

I crave peace and actively pursue it in my life. As I’ve gotten older, I have become more comfortable and confident with letting go of things that disrupt my inner tranquility. I focus heavily on my little family and how I can be the best wife and mother possible.
