Hey ya'll,

I'm Margot and welcome to my epicurean journey. I grew up in McAllen, Texas and I now I live in Fort Worth, Texas with my wonderful little family that I absolutely adore. I have an amazing husband, a darling son that I am so blessed to have, and our three sweet pups. All of whom make my life complete and keep me busy in the kitchen. 

 

Growing up I always enjoyed watching my dad in the kitchen and around the grill. He shares my same passion for cooking and is the one who has brought out the cook in me. Being only miles away from the Mexican border, Mexican food was a huge influence in my family's life and still is. As I went off to college, I started cooking with my sisters we were always the house that was known for food and entertaining. It was then that honed in on my cooking skills and realized how food truly does brings people together.

​

In 2009, I moved to Austin, Texas where the foodie scene was just starting to boom. Once I moved there, the true foodie in me was born. I taught myself new recipes, proper techniques and over the years I learned tricks to make recipes even better. 

 

In 2016, I noticed how people were always reaching out to me asking about restaurant recommendations and if I was willing to share my own recipes. I then realized how passionately I wanted to share my love of food and recipes to everyone and not just to family and friends. So, I started this blog and haven’t looked back. As Julia Child once said, "People who love to eat are the best people". I wholeheartedly agree. So stick around a while. You might find something that will help guide you on your own epicurean journey.
