About

I am Becky, a mom of four wonderful kids and wife to the most amazing guy! I have 4 main loves in my life:

1. My family
2. Music
3. Running
4. Food

My love for baking was born when I was 11 years old and I baked my first batch of cream cheese brownies. I was hooked. My family never had to make dessert again. However, cooking didn’t come as naturally. The first time I cooked for my husband, I had to call my mom and ask her how to brown beef. I like to think I’ve come a long way since then.

I love letting my kids cook with me. I strongly believe in spending quality time with your kids, teaching them the value of work.
But, I also love to cook by myself. As in, no one is allowed in the house. And my iPod might be turned up all the way. And I might be signing at the top of my lungs.

I actually do sing, professionally. I also love playing the piano, and I hope my kids grow up with a love of music too.

I fell in love with running a year ago, and just ran my first half-marathon.  I am hooked!

My hair-style/color changes frequently. My sister calls me "Tonks" and if you don't know what that means, go read Harry Potter.

Sometimes I let my kids eat cake for breakfast. Monkeys see, monkeys do, right? Follow it up with a fruit or vegetable and it’s all good.

I do not believe in no-bake cheesecake. I do believe in cake mixes.

On this blog, you will probably never find: olives, mushrooms, bananas, green beans, or anything that lives in the sea.

You will find all things cream cheese, from savory to sweet and everything in between. I believe it should be its own food group. But here you will find a variety of easy and delicious recipes!

Enjoy!
