What Is Simple Made Simple?
Ever read a boujee blog and then think, ok - that's unattainable? We all have. This blog is not that. The goal and purpose of this blog is to show you, the everyday girl, simple ways to cook for your family (or yourself!), casually entertain so it's a bit less stressful, and incorporate easy home and life tips and tricks to accomplish what we all desire: simple made simple.
I'll write about three main topics: food and cooking, entertaining, and life made simple. These are the things I enjoy doing and I always have friends and family comment on how simple I make cooking look or how I'm nuts for hosting a certain type of event. I typically just shrug my shoulders and do my thing. So why a blog about all this then? My sister-in-law encouraged me to write this blog as I was preparing dinner one night before our weekly viewing of The Bachelor/Bachelorette/Bachelor in Paradise. As I was preparing dinner, I used what I thought was an everyday food prep trick, but it left her amazed. She told me I seriously needed to write all this stuff down. And that's where it began. Welcome to Simple Made Simple.
Why Food and Cooking? I LOVE to cook. Cooking, fortunately, has always come naturally to me. My mom is a great cook and my grandma was as well, so cooking has never felt scary to me. But, I know it can be daunting for some. I don't think it has to be. I'll share some of my favorite (and most simple!) recipes as well as some easy kitchen tips and tricks to make cooking feel a bit more manageable. I don't make a lot of difficult dishes, most of them take anywhere from 30-45 minutes to prep and cook, and they are family and husband approved. Hope you find something you like!
Why Life Made Simple? Isn't everyone out to make life a little easier? I've always subscribed to the saying, "work smarter, not harder". Trust me, I'm not out to dodge hard work. But, I'm definitely out to find ways to "work smarter" and incorporate simple life hacks, strategies, and products to make life a little easier. In this crazy life we live, time and convenience are of the essence and I'm definitely learning that as I tackle mom-life, so I'll share some of my tips, tricks, and hacks for making life just a little bit more simple.
Why Entertaining? Entertaining can be fun but extremely stressful. We've all seen the Instagram and Facebook posts of the perfect table scape, menu, and decorations and decided entertaining wasn't for us because we couldn't accomplish perfect. Or, we've all felt overwhelmed by the sheer amount of work entertaining takes. What food do I prepare? What serving ware do I use? Do I even have serving ware for that? I'll share some of the ways I've made entertaining enjoyable and simple for me. From bridal showers to casual family dinners, I hope everyone can find a tip or trick that suites them.
Follow me along my daily life journey as I do all these things - cook, entertain, and find new ways to make life more simple. Hope you enjoy and can utilize some of what I share.
