MEET BROOKE

Welcome to Peek In My Kitchen

I'm Brooke and I'm so happy you're here! The first thoughts of Peek In My Kitchen started 8 years ago. I had been married for 3 years and our first child was on the way. We were living on meals out and, for meals at home, deli meat and cheese. I went to my kitchen one day and had to Google “how to hard boil an egg.” As I started to teach myself how to cook, I began to realize that I was part of a generation of people that are successful in so many areas of their lives but have no idea what they are doing in the kitchen. Peek In My Kitchen is my quest to show that feeding your people, whether that’s friends, family, or loving on total strangers, can be done. It can be clean and healthy. And it’s fun when life is done around the table.  

A LIttle More About Me

I'm a mom of two kids that keep me on my toes. I'm a wife to Jared, a cowboy boot wearing, native Pennsylvania boy. I'm slightly Type A and totally okay with that. I'm an extreme extrovert that can suffer from a serious case of FOMO if I let it get the best of me. I think Jesus is pretty rad. I love my friends hard and I love my family harder. We live in San Antonio, Texas, a city that I adore, and that you'll probably hear about from time to time.  I started blogging back in 2010, first personally on our family blog, and then professionally, launching San Antonio's leading parenting website, Alamo City Moms Blog. I hope that with each visit to Peek In My Kitchen, you'll discover the joy of life spent around the table. It's time around the table, enjoying a meal, that is the root of relationship. It's where we take the time to pause, each and every day, and nourish our bodies, but also our relationships. Peek In My Kitchen is my quest to share the joys of life in the kitchen. You might also find tidbits of other parts of my life here. But either way, thanks for visiting. And y'all come back real soon, ya hear?
