KISS…keep it simple, stupid.
If there’s any takeaway from this episode’s guest, it’s don’t complicate things (especially with two little boys in the mix!)
Food blogger and kitchen enthusiast, Daisi Owens created My Stir Crazy Kitchen (https://www.instagram.com/mystircrazykitchen/) as an outlet for her love of food and cooking even when she has to rush through meal preparation and feeding her kids. It is actually her love of food and cooking that drives her to make those special memories as often as possible. Memories shared with her mother were mostly limited to fast (not necessarily fast food) meals. Daisi’s mom was a single mom and like many single moms, she was trying to make ends meet (working several jobs) and keep food on the table. Speed was often the deciding factor for meals and as Daisi looks back on it, she missed having those moments with her mom. Nowadays, Daisi’s mom has plenty of time to cook and enjoy family time something that Daisi takes full advantage of, “My mom is a great cook!”
Growing up, Daisi also spent a lot of time with her grandmother (who we discovered along the way was really her great-grandmother). It was here that she thinks her love for food and cooking began. Her grandmother would let her do “anything”. She could bake cookies and bread, make clothes from fabric scraps and never have to clean up the mess. The perfect indulgent grandmother, right?! And, she made some very special chicken and noodles. We won’t divulge the secret, we’ll let Daisi do that.
