About me
Hi! I'm Lindsey.
I do public health work at Duke University, like to run at a slow, but steady pace, teach group fitness classes, and do my best to keep up with my family that's spread across the country. In the midst all of that, playing in the kitchen is one of my favorite stress relievers and creative outlets, so this blog chronicles some of my favorite cooking and baking adventures, but in the process it also tells the story of the rest of my life.
Like many people in the Triangle area, I'm a transplant. After spending the first 21 years of my life in the midwest, I've been settled in North Carolina for seven years. One of the things I love most about the area is the diversity of local farms, farmers' markets, and great food, so I follow lots of local food happenings, but I also keep up with my fair share of Midwestern favorites.
If you like what you find here, feel free to drop me a note and
email Yummy things. I'd love to hear from all of you out there!

I’ve heard that less babies are being born these days because of the recession, but you wouldn’t know it around here.

Our friends, Nate and Saralynn, were due to deliver their first baby, on 9/09/09. In the end, their little man wouldn’t arrive until three days later, for a slightly less memorable birthday, but we’re still overjoyed to welcome Atticus Sessions to the world!

“Trot” is quite a cutie, and we can’t wait to meet him. We’ll have to get good at making some food for new parents, because Atticus is just the beginning of the baby parade we’re about to get. Dan’s got two cousins due in the next two months, two of my HBHE classmates are expecting, and our neighbors are having a baby in early 2010. Looks like the next year will be filled with lots of cooing over cute babies! :-)
