I’m in the Tiny House Magazine again, which is so much fun! Link in bio, subscribe now so that you don’t miss anything! There is an interview with me on pages 12-16, my book is larger than life on page 31, and I wrote an article about making your tiny home a haven... and that is on pages 63-65! Plus - best news saved for last - they want me to write a food column each month, we are calling it “Tiny House, Big Taste” and so you’ll get a recipe from me each month! It’s like a cookbook in installments! What fun!! #tinyhousemagazine #tinyhouse #skoolie #boat #minimalism #foodie #simple #kitchen #minimalist #simplicity #thegoodlife #eatwell #vanlife #simplelife #simpleliving #simplefood #skoolie

The perfect summer salad! Chicken, pickled egg, avocado, bacon, and chipotle ranch. #yum #fresh #gorgeous #simple #delicious #chipotleranch #bacon #avocado #pickledeggs #simplefood #yummy

We have green tomatoes on the vine. Soon they will be ripe and then Mmmm.... Summer. ❤️🍅🍃🧀🥪🥖❤️ #blt #summerfood #freshness #simplefood #thegoodlife #eatwell #simplelife #simpleliving #yum #delicious #nomnom

I’ve made a little progress on the spice rack for the Skoolie. I made the copper spice rack, then bought the spice jars at #BigLots. Then I’ve cut the labels on my #cricut and put them on one by one. Yesterday I was waiting on someone so I started filling some of the jars with spices and herbs. It’s been a weird little project that has been hanging around for a long time. It’s unlike me to take weeks to do one project but it was something I could do in a few minutes here or there without any real focus. Somehow it will eventually be finished. No worries. I love my copper spice rack and I can’t wait to find a good spot for it in the #Skoolie and hang that baby! #foodie #simple #kitchen #spices #herbs #spicerack #copper #eatwell #lovelife #simplelife #tinyhouse #simplefood #skoolie

This was our side salad at our restaurant, and we made all our dressings. Yummy, fresh, and pretty! I love the colors and flavors of fresh things. Oh, and the texture! #crunch #yummy #salad #eatwell #freshness #simplefood #simpleliving

You deserve to be free! This phrase came to me a while back. Tiny house living has set us free in so many ways, and I have this sense that I’m not the only one who would love feeling this sense of liberty. So that became a life purpose for me. You deserve to be free! 💛🧡❤️ I just thought you should know that. #youmatter #simplicity #kitchen #kitchensimplicity #minimalism #minimalist #thegoodlife #eatwell #vanlife #simplelife #tinyhouse #simpleliving #simplefood #skoolie #tinyhousefoodie #carmenshenk
