home lifestyle food from scratch blog

I began writing cozytastyhome.com in June 2018 not just to keep my writing skills sharp, but also to help others create a beautiful life at home. I strongly believe in the importance of making home life a priority. When your home life is in order, it helps the rest of your life fall into order as well.

I’m lucky to be a stay at home mom to my two daughters. After my first was born I learned that running my household is something that I’m actually really good at. Taking care of my home and children has also helped me manage my crippling anxiety (I’m a long time anxiety sufferer) and develop coping mechanisms. One of the main ways I keep my anxiety in check is by keeping my home in order.

The aim of my blog is to help you create a beautiful life at home by passing on all I have learned and continue to learn daily. I truly hope I can inspire and motivate you to create positive change in your own home.

Some fun facts about me:

I’m a Virginia native, and my family roots run deep here. My mother’s family are Yorktown natives going back generations. I was even married in historic Yorktown.

I have a bachelor of arts degree in Medieval Studies.

I’ve been writing stories since I was old enough to write and wrote my first “book” when I was seven.

I’m married to the most wonderful supportive man who is my rock. He also designs my web graphics!

My husband inspired my love for Germany, and we took a trip there in August 2015. I love all things German, especially the food!
