I'm SHELLEY

welcome, welcome!

I'm a mom to six busy kids and the kitchen is my happy place!





Dinnertime - does the mere mention of it make you want to run and hide or change your name from "Mom"? That's okay, you're not alone. The thought of it brings me a lot of joy ... most days. ;)

I love to cook and am a total logistics person. I've been a part of family dinners for my whole life and have seen the benefits of consistent family dinners at home through generations. I feel they are a crucial part to strengthening a family's relationships, building a solid family culture, imbuing kids with confidence and teaching kids how to communicate. But where to begin? 

I offer simple, effective ways to prioritize family dinners at home, tips for enlisting help in getting dinner on the table, ideas to  navigate tricky dinner table dynamics and some of my favorite recipes. Join me in reclaiming the timeless tradition of family dinners at home!
