hey there

My name is Casey Cheek and I’m a part-time food blogger, full-time food lover. I’m from Yonkers, NY and went to college to study architecture at University of Tennessee (go vols baby). I met my now husband, Brian at UT and we moved to Nashville. Then the next few years were a whirlwind: I moved in with Brian, we got 2 Great Pyrenees (or polar bears as I call them), got married, moved to Brian’s hometown in North Carolina, bought our first home, renovated it (mostly) all ourselves, and I started a food blog. (Might have forgotten some things but I digress.)

When I have literally any free time you can find me in the kitchen. I grew up in a big Italian family, so food has been one of the biggest parts of my life. My philosophy with food is to always make the things you crave. I love taking my favorite comfort foods and lightening them up. I like to think I make a good mix of healthy bowls you’d want to make on the weekdays, and not-so healthy bowls you’d want on a saturday night (aka AllTypesOfBowls).
