Welcome! My name is Amy and I live in the heart of North Raleigh, NC with my husband, DJ and our two precious pups, Rocky and Mila. We love food. Plain and simple. We are NOT picky eaters and we love trying new things. Except olives, they can go away forever.

Food has always been more than just food for me. Cooking is such a creative outlet for me. My mind literally turns off in the kitchen and there are no rules, recipes, etc.

And that’s where the name of my blog comes from. Most of my recipes are made off a whim. They often don’t require planning, measuring, long grocery lists, etc…they simply come from the “crumbs” in my kitchen. Whatever is on hand is literally what I use.

When I get home at the end of a long day, the last thing I want to do is run around the grocery store for a few ingredients that I “need” to make something. I love being able to improvise or BS my way around the kitchen, if you will.

Through this blog, I hope to inspire you to challenge yourself in your kitchen.  Combine ingredients that normally aren’t paired together, expand your palette, lose the measuring cups and endless grocery lists. Just create!
