And mumdishdelights is my little corner of the internet!
I launched mumdishdelights in the summer of 2015 while I was still juggling a full‑time marketing job and two newborn twins. I’d been scribbling recipes on napkins during diaper changes, and one night I realized I wanted a place to share the meals that kept my family fed and smiling. I set up a simple WordPress blog, posted my first post—“One‑Pot Chicken & Veggie Skillet”—and never looked back.
Fast‑forward to today, the site has grown into a modest food hub that reaches about 52,000 unique visitors each month (as of March 2024). I’ve published more than 210 recipes, from quick weeknight dinners to seasonal holiday treats. In 2022 I released my first e‑book, “30 Days of Family‑Friendly Meals,” which has been downloaded over 5,200 times. I also started a monthly newsletter in 2021 that now boasts a 42 % open rate, and I’m proud to say that the community of home cooks who comment, share, and ask questions keeps getting bigger.
I live in Asheville, North Carolina, with my husband Mark and our twins, Lily (7) and Noah (5). When I’m not in the kitchen, you’ll find me on a nearby trail with a coffee thermos, digging through crates at the local record shop, or trying to keep my succulents alive. My favorite things are fresh basil, a well‑timed oven timer, and the sound of my kids laughing while they help stir the batter.
One quirky habit I have is that I always taste‑test a dish while standing on one foot—just a little reminder to stay balanced, both in cooking and in life.
