How It All Started

The blog began in 2013 as a middle school project for Maddie, our oldest daughter. We wanted something that would allow us to connect, create, and build something together—and it quickly became more than just a project. It turned into a business, a community, and a way to share joy with others.

We published our first recipe, and just weeks later, received a message from a woman living in Southeast Asia. She was so excited to find our homemade pizza dough recipe—it reminded her of home. That was the moment we realized the true power of food: it connects us across the miles.
