Hey there, I’m Monie — lover of stories, faith, family, and all the little moments that make life feel full.

This is my cozy corner of the internet, a table set for sharing the flavors of family recipes simmered with love, reflections from a heart still learning, and the creative sparks that keep me moving forward. It’s where faith and everyday life mingle in imperfect harmony, and everyone’s invited to pull up a chair, rest, laugh, and grow.

I’m a momma of three amazing kiddos, a proud Texan, and a believer who’s learned that life’s best moments often come wrapped in messy, beautiful layers of grace. I’m also a writer working on a collection of stories still unfolding—books waiting patiently to be born.

Here you’ll find:

• Recipes passed down and reimagined, carrying flavor and memory.
• Honest reflections that breathe faith and real life into the everyday.
• Early glimpses of stories in progress—windows into what moves me and, I hope, moves you too.
• And soon, a quietly magical project I hold close, ready to share when the moment is right.

No shoes required. No small talk needed. Just come as you are, and bring your appetite for good stories.

Thanks for being here…
