Hi! I’m Rachel. I live in Vermont with my partner Brendan (a recovering picky eater) and our adorable dog Brewster (a lover of any and all human food). We own a home that is about to celebrate it’s hundredth birthday. Luckily, the kitchen has been upgraded a bit since then. While it is by no means perfect or beautiful, it serves as the backdrop to all of my cooking adventures.
One of the last things my Nana said to Brendan before she died was that she wanted him to try to get me to do more cooking. Over the past few years, thanks to lots of encouragement, an increase in free time and a love of our local farm-fresh produce, meats and cheeses, I have become a passionate home cook.
This blog is in honor of Nana and all of the recipes that she passed down from generations of home cooks.
For Nana 
Hi, Rachel
You may not remember me but i am your Mom’s best friend from high school. I live in Florida now. I have to tell you that I remember your Nana’s cooking and still make some of her recipes! She was a great lady.
I will tell my daughters about your website. They love to cook and also are very conscious of eating healthy organic foods. Someday they hope to write a cookbook together. Good luck with your website.
