We are thrilled to begin this journey into the world of convenience for all the hard working people out there who just cannot find enough time in the day to make a hearty meal. Our passion for good food meets our desire to simplify life for you.

Our team is a dynamic duo, each member bringing a unique set of skills that seamlessly blend together, enhancing our collective strength.

Kate is the chef, possessing over five decades of experience in cooking and baking. She began her culinary journey as a home cook, eventually owning a bakery, and has since been creating delectable dishes and baked goods for her family and friends to savor both at home and celebrations. As a trained home science educator, she embodies the spirit of a lifelong learner, continually acquiring new skills such as cookie icing and cake decorating. She prepares each meal as if it were an art, always taking care to ensure taste and nutrition.

Joana birthed the idea of this service as an answer to a problem that many working mothers like herself encounter. About 2 years ago, while working full-time and pursuing her MBA, not to mention managing a family with young kids, she found herself resorting to fast food multiple days a week. Despite her best efforts to improve the situation by trying existing food prep services such as HelloFresh and Blue Apron, which were great, they simply did not capture the flavors of her Ghanaian, West African roots. She longed for the delectable tastes of home-cooked food and dreamed of a day when she could help other families easily access nutritious and tasty meals without the prep time.
