Hey there! I’m Eva, and this is Eva’s Easy Eats. I’m married with four amazing kids aged 4, 7, 9, and 11. Our home is always full of giggles and a little chaos!
The kids love making a mess in the kitchen, and we often end up having flour fights while baking cookies. It’s messy but so much fun!
I enjoy sneaking in a piece of chocolate when no one’s looking. It’s my little treat amidst the craziness of family life!
My family means the world to me, and I wouldn’t trade our wild, love-filled days for anything. They fill my heart and tummy with endless joy!
How I Got the Idea to Start My Blog
You know, the idea to start Eva’s Easy Eats came from my four awesome kids. They’d always gush about how much they loved the meals I made, and they kept telling me, “Mom, these are too good not to share!” Their encouragement sparked something in me.
At first, I was a bit lost—I didn’t even know where to begin with blogging. The thought of sharing my recipes online seemed daunting. I mean, I was just a mom who loved to cook, not a tech savvy blogger. It all felt a little overwhelming.
But then, my husband gave me a gentle nudge. He’s my rock, and he said, “You should go for it, Eva! People would love your delicious food.” His belief in me was just the push I needed. With his support, I started exploring the idea of blogging.
There were plenty of challenges; keeping up with regular posts was hard. I was also clueless about food photography. How was I supposed to make my food look as tasty as it was? It took practice, but I gradually improved with each recipe.
Pinterest seemed like the perfect platform for my blog. I felt it was a great space to connect with other food lovers who appreciated quick and easy recipes. It made sharing my cooking adventures a lot simpler and fun!
Despite the hurdles, I kept going. My family’s constant support and love for my cooking made the journey worthwhile. It’s been an exciting and fulfilling ride, and I’m thrilled I decided to dive into this blogging adventure!
My Daily Routine and Recipe Adventures
Every day is a fun whirlwind! I wake up early to plan our meals, thinking about what my kids will enjoy. Cooking becomes a little journey where we can explore new flavors together, even amid the chaos!
When choosing recipes, I usually go for family favorites that bring smiles. I also love experimenting with new ideas or using fresh, seasonal ingredients to keep things exciting in the kitchen.
Preparing the recipes is like a mini-project for me. I take my time, making sure each dish tastes yummy and looks pretty. I share all the little secrets I learn along the way to make the cooking process easier for everyone.
Food photography is pure joy! I love using natural light to capture our meals. I play around with different angles and settings to make our food look as delicious as it tastes. It’s always a fun challenge to get that perfect shot!
