I believe food is one of the most powerful ways we connect as humans. We gather around the table to eat, yes, but also to talk, laugh, decompress, and share pieces of our lives with the people we love.
At the same time, food can easily become a source of stress. Between work, family, and everything else life throws at us, cooking can feel like just one more exhausting thing on an already full plate.
I’m here to help make that part easier.
Cozy, Dependable Food for Real Life
At Pip & Ebby, I share easy, dependable recipes that help you put comforting food on the table without spending endless hours in the kitchen. These are meals that actually work. The kind you make again and again because they’re simple, flavorful, and reliable.
Nothing fancy. Nothing fussy. Just cozy comfort food that fits into real life and leaves you with enough energy to actually enjoy the people you’re feeding.
And yes, I believe cooking can even be fun again.
How Pip & Ebby Began
Ten years ago, I was working long days in an office and coming home each evening to cook dinner for my husband and two young boys. I wanted to serve good food, but I was tired and overwhelmed, and too many recipes felt complicated or unpredictable.
I knew if I was struggling in the kitchen, other busy women probably were too. So I created the kind of recipe collection I was desperately looking for myself, approachable, dependable meals that didn’t require perfection.
That’s how Pip & Ebby was born.
Today, my passion is stronger than ever. I want to help you create comforting, flavorful meals that bring people together while preserving your energy for the moments that matter most.

A few fun facts about me..
🗺 In 2016, my family sold our home, bought an RV, and traveled the western US for three months. We loved it so much that we still take mini versions of that trip every summer, often ending up at our favorite place, Flathead Lake in Montana.
⛄️ Minnesota is home. I live here with my husband Dan, our boys Elijah and Sammy, our sweet dog Buddy, and our very cool cat Moga, named after our son’s heart surgeon.
🍲 I adore my Instant Pot and spent years testing and developing pressure cooker recipes to make it less intimidating and more useful for everyday cooking.
🪂 Dan and I met at a skydiving drop zone in 2004. Yes, really. He also makes incredible cocktails.
🎙️ Some of my favorite things include podcasts at 1.5x speed, Marvel movies with my boys, Coldplay, Dots candy, mountain views, a really good cup of coffee, cozy fires, and a great meal shared at home.
A Little More About My Work
🎓 I graduated from Buena Vista University with degrees in Art and English.
📕 I’m the author of Cookie Remix, a cookbook created after a very flour filled year in the kitchen. You can watch the segment here where I very nervously make a batch of cookies from the book.
🎙 I host the Eat Blog Talk podcast and community, where I support and connect food creators.
⌛️ I love speaking at events about topics near and dear to me, including efficiency and productivity. Those gracious enough to host me include the Food Blogger Summit, Tastemaker Conference and IFBC Conference.
📗 Take the Exit is a memoir I wrote in 2025 about slowing down, trusting the unknown and choosing a more intentional life. Through stories from our family’s years on the road, I explore time freedom, presence and the quiet moments that change everything when we stop rushing and start listening.
