Welcome friends

Welcome Friends!

I'm Abbey, and I'm so happy you've found my little corner of the internet. I hope to inspire you to gather around the table and share a meal with family and friends.

What's Cooking Here

Modern-ish comfort food: Comfort food includes cozy soups and rib-sticking casseroles, but it also represents nostalgic recipes and lighter dishes filled with crave-worthy flavors. There are dishes that bring me back to my childhood, as well as new recipes I have created for my family.

My recipes are casual and approachable, ideal for everyday life. They're not fussy or complicated and don't involve extravagant presentations. I use readily available ingredients that don't require trips to specialty food stores.

Why You Can Trust Me

I develop, test, and photograph all of my recipes. I write the blog posts, and I even do the dishes! I do not outsource any part of this process.

Authentic recipes: I do not use AI-generated recipes or AI-generated photography. Each recipe you see here is developed and tested by me to ensure it's approachable, reliable, and delicious. My goal is to share recipes that I truly love and that you can feel confident making in your own home.
