Hi, I’m Deborah!
The face behind the lifestyle blog is filled with simple living, delicious from-scratch recipes, do-it-yourself inspiration, and home decorating and design!
After spending years as a busy mom (who LOVES to cook) and interior designer, I decided to begin sharing my easy DIY projects, one-of-a-kind home renovations, and simple family recipes on this blog in 2022. I am very passionate about sharing advice on creating a simplified lifestyle that enhances well-being and embraces simplicity in your food, home, and life. I hope to inspire others by giving practical tips for your home, simple, easy-to-follow recipes, and ways to create the life you love.
When I was a little girl, I spent much of my time on the farm in my grandmother’s kitchen, cooking and baking our favorite recipes or thrifting with my grandpa at the local auction mart or yard sale. My mother was a lover of gardening, nature, and a very simple way of life, all of which truly helped form me into the girl I am today.
At 12 years old, I was confirmed at the church just down the street from the most beautiful house in our small town, a 100-year-old Victorian that looked like it was a castle in the eyes of a young girl! I remember standing and thinking that one day I would own that house…. fast forward 25 years, and now I live here!
Ten years ago, we took the plunge and bought the beautiful fixer-upper with a budget of only $25K for renovations! The home needed SO much updating, which meant it was time to roll up the sleeves and get to work! After endless renovations and DIY projects, I turned my love for our home and simple living into this lifestyle blog with my delicious family recipes, easy one of kind DIY projects, home renovation, and decor.
Over the years, I have been featured by Better Homes and Gardens (Farmhouse Christmas Magazine 2023), Martha Stewart, Apartment Therapy, and The Spruce. I have been featured in Farmhouse Magazine, Cottage and Bungalows, and Farmhouse Kitchen Magazine and partnered with amazing brands such as Wayfair, Samsung, Crate & Barrel, Safeway, Canadian Tire, Brooklinen, Chapters/Indigo, Cabela’s, and so many more.
If you were to walk into my home today, you would see a determined, creative, messy-haired bun girl tackling all the projects with a latte and paintbrush! My goal in this lifestyle blog is to help you create a home and lifestyle you can genuinely say you LOVE! From home decor tips, simple DIYs, easy family favorite recipes, gardening tips, and simple living inspiration, I want to SHARE it with all of you!
I would love it if you would connect with me on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, and Pinterest, and you can join my weekly letters to receive my best tips, shop my favorite things, and try my yummy recipes every week! I promise it’s where I share all my best info!
xo, Deborah
