About Kate Sorensen
Who I Am
Hello! I’m Kate Sorensen, a self-described introverted blogger with a deep love for food. I value frugality and loyalty and enjoy a cozy life at home, spiced up with occasional country music concerts or dinners with family and friends.
My Professional Journey
My career path has been diverse, with experiences ranging from recruiting for a Fortune 500 company to marketing for a family-owned chain of restaurants in Iowa. This journey has honed my skills in both corporate and more personal, community-focused environments.
My Passion for Cooking and Food
As a working mom, I’ve mastered the art of frugality in the kitchen. I revel in exploring new cooking techniques, especially those that make life easier for busy parents. Stretching a grocery budget to create enjoyable family meals brings me immense satisfaction. Feeding friends and family is more than a hobby; it’s my way of expressing love.
A Glimpse into My Background
Interestingly, my cooking skills are self-taught. Growing up with a single mother, our meals were simple, often just BLTs or toast with Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom soup. These humble beginnings have shaped my culinary journey. I’ve evolved from someone who couldn’t make macaroni and cheese to a confident cook experimenting with various dishes.
Memorable Moments in Food
One of my fondest food memories is from a friend’s house, where the concept of a “chili bar” introduced me to the idea that food can be both a creative and communal experience. It taught me that a bit of time thought, and love can turn a meal into a cherished memory.
What I Offer You
You’ll find easy, approachable recipes on my blog that I would share with my closest friends and family. Food is not just about nourishment; it’s a pathway to heartfelt conversations and building stronger communities.
