About

Hi, I’m Angie… that is me: on the right  I live in Des Moines, IA though my heart will always be in Ames.  “A Pinch of This” reflects my cooking style, and my lifestyle.  I am incredibly laid back in the kitchen, and am always looking to add my touch to a dish.  I started blogging after I got married, and moved away from Ames.  I used to be able to readily share my cooking with roommates and friends nearby.  My cooking has gotten more varied since Matt prefers me to change it up quite a bit, so it’s always fun to share what I’m excited about at the moment.

Outside of the kitchen, I am also incredibly laid back   I am a terrible housekeeper, and depend upon my husband to keep said kitchen clean.  Someday we will have a family, but right now we are waiting to become a host home, or foster home, to an adult with an intellectual disability.  I help my husband make and sell a lawn game called Kubb.  We have a blast playing, and making this game!  And, I work as a hairdresser.  I’d like to teach myself how to embroider, and sew in general.  I would also like to be better at keeping in touch with my family and friends… but hopefully this blog of my life happenings will help fill in the gaps

Thanks for stopping by… linger awhile if you’d like!  Feel free to make my recipes your own, and let me know how it goes!
