Hi, I'm Samantha

An aspiring cook who leans on semi-scratch meals to create simple and relatable dishes for two in my small New York kitchen. Scaling portions and working with limited space can be challenging, but I’ve learned a few hacks to get meals served while they’re still hot. I enjoy baking but consider myself a “rustic baker” because I have yet to master creating beautiful baked goods.
