About me
Hi! I'm Lindsey.
I'm a health educator, 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 was all set to tell you about the casseroles that I’ve been making recently - which despite what my Grandpa thought about them, are really awesome for getting you lots of good ingredients all in one dish and leaving you leftovers for lunches later in the week - but then we had this fantastically wonderful spring weekend and Auntie Whitney here to enjoy it with. It just wouldn’t be right to be gushing about one-dish meals, when there were really much better things happening as May arrived!
Marinated tuna sandwich and awesomely simple, delicious potato salad from Neal’s Deli (glad we finally made it there!)
Strawberry french toast, with strawberries from Saturday morning’s trip to the Carrboro Farmers’ Market
Curried wheatberry salad, with broccoli from our first box of the spring CSA season
Cobb salad, with lettuce from Maple Springs Garden and eggs from Coon Rock Farm
More pictures of our weekend outings coming soon. Hopefully these tide you over, if you’re experiencing some less than spring-like weather tonight!
