Hey Hosting Queen,

Total truth moment: I love food. Like, really love food. Every part of it—from dreaming up recipes to plating them beautifully. One of my favourite ways to show love is through food: nourishing, thoughtful, flavourful.
It’s like a party in your mouth. 🎉

I baked my first banana bread when I was 7. Cooked my first guest meal at just 10.
And I can still remember my 7th birthday dinner (no joke):

✨ Fresh-caught wild salmon
✨ Baby potatoes with fresh dill from my great-aunt’s garden
✨ A bouquet of flowers from her award-winning beds as the centrepiece

That’s probably where my love affair with food began. Over the years, it’s grown into what I call my “everyday gourmet” style.

Some of my most memorable dishes?

🍓 My annual Christmas trifle—never the same twice.
One year: gingerbread cake, orange-rosemary crème, and homemade cranberry sauce.
Last year: tuxedo trifle with dark and white chocolate layers and silky ganache.

🍰 Raw desserts—yes, desserts that taste incredible and are good for you. Yes please!

🥘 Weeknight meals for my family—nothing fancy, just made with love.

🎉 Big backyard gatherings—like the one where I fed 50 people and loved every second of it.

If you love to make food… or just eat really good food, then you’re my kind of people.

Less Stress, More Magic ~ Always
