Hello & welcome

Meet Kristine

Hi, I’m Kristine. If we were neighbors, you’d probably find me testing another recipe, decorating for the next holiday a little too early, or rearranging my furniture for the hundreth time.

I’ve always believed it’s the simple things that make a house feel like home. A family recipe that’s been passed down, cookies on a random Tuesday, or the perfect little table you found antiquing. And that’s what this place is all about.

most loved recipe (by you!)

Basic Cookie Dough for Mix-ins

A simple, reliable cookie dough that bakes up soft and chewy every single time.

Kristine’s Top Pick

Easy Homemade Granola

This granola is lightly sweet and perfectly crisp. It’s made with just a handful of pantry staples and it’s ready in under an hour.

On the menu this week

Chicken Fried Rice

Fast, flavorful chicken fried rice that’s better than takeout. Made with simple ingredients, toasty rice, and a savory sauce.
