About

Hello!  Thanks for stopping in!

I started The Spicy Ginger as a way to share my favorite recipes with other lovers-of-food such as myself.  For me, food is a key way that I experience the world.  It is the way I celebrate the best of times – successes, good news, timeless memories – and a way to cope with the “lemons” life can throw at you.  Cooking amazing food for other people brings me so much joy – so this is just one more way to share my favorite foods with the world!

I’m a full-time working mama of Oliver (2) and Liesl (6 months).  We’re transplants from Colorado, currently living in Cincinnati, OH.  I work at Procter & Gamble, putting my husband (Nick) through school for aerospace engineering.  As a family, we love cooking together and spending time in the great outdoors.

 

 

Before getting my MBA, I received a degree in Music Education (voice major) and taught middle school choir and theatre.  In my glory days, I ran marathons for fun (ie. to support counter my eating habits).  I’m a mountain girl of the highest degree.

 

 

 

Take a look around, and feel free to leave me a note and tell me what you like!  Always happy to meet new friends!  And thanks again for reading – you just added a smile to my day!
