KS Kitchen & Sweets

Welcome!

In 2021, I set out to fulfill my dream of writing a cooking blog. Since high school, I’ve loved reading food bloggers’ stories alongside their recipes. I’ve amassed quite a collection of cookbooks written by those bloggers and others over the years! I love cookbooks and cooking blogs because they feel aspirational and joyful. Reading a recipe with gorgeous photos makes you believe you can step into another life: one where you fearlessly make pasta from scratch or beautifully decorate a layer cake. I started this blog to turn those countless cookbook daydreams into a reality.

KS Kitchen & Sweets is about creating joy inside and outside the kitchen. It’s also important to me to share the messes that come along with all that creativity, too! The “KS” in the name nods to both of my family names as well as the state where my husband and I have made our home.

On the Cookbook Project page, follow along as I tackle my goal to make at least one recipe from each chapter of every cookbook on my shelves (~40). I don’t share those recipes since they are not my own, but I share my stories about making them and report my Taste, Process, Leftover, and Mess scores!

Look out for my Bloom Reports on the Home & Garden page as I remind myself to enjoy nature’s beauty at each phase of the year.

I’m excited to continue adding even more “sweets” to the blog as I go! Thank you for being here!

Love, Paula KS
