About Me

My Past

I’m from Crown Heights Brooklyn, New York.  I’m the youngest of 4 children born to a Immigrant mother  *natively from The West Indies.  I’m apart of the first American born generation in my family on my mothers side.

In my earliest years of life starting at 2 years old is when my love for food and development of a keen sense of flavors emerged. I can remember my earliest memories based on the foods I ate , my heart lit of up at the taste of Grilled Jerk Chicken that was made on the Utica Avenue when I was with my mother. 

My mother would always let me taste foods “from Home” as she would say. She would get ahold of native island foods like Ackees , Malta, Guava Jam  and let me taste a little. I believe it changed the course of my life, because I truly have a passion and love for cooking not just foods “from home” but all foods from around the world!

Eventually my family moved from the city to the countryside of Middle Georgia When I was a little girl.  As I grew through the years I kept my passionate eye for food alive, at 10 years old I would cook meals for my family .

when I was a teen I use to stay up all night in the summer to watch the Food Network late night line up on T.V.  My favorite shows were Good Eats , Iron Chef , Barefoot Contessa and Unwrapped.  I used a lot of the food techniques I learned and applied it to my own food creations, Which made my meals a favorite at my home whenever I throw down in the kitchen!

As my knowledge in the kitchen grew so did my techniques for preparing diet specific foods.

I became a mom at 18 years old, during that I put cooking aside and began studying all I could about pregnancy, motherhood  and herbs. I started working in retail for the first 5 years of my sons life, as a single mother I worked very hard to bring in the money to care for my son.

In the August of 2016 I met the love of my life , who soon became my fiancé in December of 2017. 

My Passion

 I made mistakes in my journey through motherhood just like anyone does, even so  that could have been easily avoided with proper guidance & knowledge.

I grew into a heavily knowledgable  women who learned from trial & error , extensive study ,viewing my peers and extensive amounts of shadow work. Seeing other women struggle with their pregnancy, childcare , postpartum recovery , relationships and  nutrition ignited me to start this blog.  I feel called to share my modern traditionalist lifestyle towards my cause of raising   “Good Wives” , many of us  weren’t raised nor taught how to be a spouse. My passion is to  provide pillars of truth , love , knowledge and wisdom to my generation and the next, to learn how to be “Good Wives” to care for ourselves and our families.
