Hi! I’m Amanda.

I’m a writer, chocolate chip cookie baker, blog designer, power walker, Instagram fiend, peanut butter toast lover and copious coffee drinker living in Nebraska with my husband and three cats. (also a fan of a good run-on sentence)

I was super excited to do my very first guest post for the very first foodie blog I read when I clicked the “next” button on the top of the Blogger page.  I was also extremely nervous and had to write and upload my guest post at the BF’s farm…which had very slow internet and took hours to upload the photos.  It was worth it to help out Lee and see my work on another blog! 🙂
