Hi!! I'm Katie and welcome to my blog, Epicurean Mom! 

There are two things I love most in life; family and food ~ usually in that order.  This blog is dedicated to both.

My love of food started when I was young helping my mom in the kitchen. Now it's my turn to teach my daughters to experiment and enjoy the process of coming up with culinary creations of their own.  Speaking of children, I have become adamant about using only fresh, organic, and mostly local ingredients.  We even grow fruits and vegetables in our yard.  And how lucky we are to be in California where we can grow our own food most of the year. Cooking is about taste ~ it's also about health.  Most importantly, my children's health.

I hope you enjoy following my blog ~ please let me know that you're checking in by leaving your wonderful comments.  They are really such a joy to read! 

Please feel free to use or copy my posts and photos but please link it back to my original post or blog (give credit where credit is due.)  100% of all photos on this blog are taken by me.  If you would like to use the photos please contact me first. 

Bon Appetite!
