Hi! I'm Sophie, and I have a passion for writing, reading, running, and traveling. I’ve spent my entire life learning to cook and bake from my mom (the best chef in the world), enjoying homemade food around my family’s dinner table, and writing about it all. I believe that life is better with warm cookies and worn books, fresh ingredients and first drafts, cozy kitchens and companions to cook with. Nothing cures headaches like chocolate, no first day of school is complete without pumpkin bread, and no dreary day can brighten without chicken noodle soup.
