HOW DID I GET HERE?

This is me... I work the typical 9-5 job

This is my thumbs up for visiting my site, not my middle finger.

I have a papercut. Am I dying?

My meals have health and time on mind...

but I'm not a nutrionist, dietician or doctor.. or photographer or chef. I'm not sure how a blog works. In fact, I'm not even that good at Googling.


Before these recipes, mom and sis thought my lack of kitchen skills would cause my husband to wither away.
...help, I'm withering



Well, I proved them wrong.
Turned out, I was pretty awesome.
Is cookie deep-fried?
Less words, more food.
Feed me!


You have high cholesterol.


But then, our annual check up came up with Doctor Ruinedourfun...
Whoops.


So, I did a lot of research...
Is my husband going to die?

...and found ways to incorporate healthy foods into our diet. I'm not going to lie, we had a lot of bad dinners after that. Eventually, we figured it out.



Why does it keep giving me apples?

Ideally, I would use
all fresh, organic or non-processed ingredients...

but I work...and
my money tree
stopped working
last winter.. so..

After some time with the new menu
Over achiever

his cholesterol returned to normal and he also shed some weight.


I think I'm onto something.

I also noticed an improvement in my mood and anxiety.

So, made her a meal plan with my recipes.

During his recovery, I spent a lot of time in the stroke unit. I learned more about the power of food and how it effects our heart.
Why are they giving you bananas every day?


Now I had my mom asking me for help. She had high cholesterol, high blood sugar and was a bit overweight.


I was totally humble about it too.
Tell me I'm your favourite daughter and I'll consider it
Holy crap... I AM awesome.

3 months later, her cholesterol and blood sugar are within normal range... and she lost 25 pounds!


Unfortunately, the journey continued. My mom's banging body caused my dad to suffer a stroke.

I'm sad :(

I now incorporate even more heart disease fighting foods into my recipes.
..and dad is still here with us getting healthier day-by-day.


Now, I share with you my recipes that I've put together during my journey. Also, not an English major either...

or at least you can enjoy this comic strip that took forever!
