hi! i'm dresden.

a curly haired, young professional, living in Maryland. by day, i work in financial services but outside of my 9-5, i love being in the kitchen. whether creating recipes or mixing up cocktails, its my favorite place to be.

good food is the way to my heart. nothing satisfies me more than a great conversation over a great meal. brunch is my favorite meal and its not brunch if the mimosas aren't bottomless! i wouldn’t consider myself much of a picky eater - i'll try anything once. the most interesting foods i've tried to date are fried alligator (tastes like chicken) and octopus (i’ve grown to like it a lot). traveling is a favorite of mine as well! my favorite city to eat in is new orleans. if you haven't been, go book a flight. seriously, you'll never regret it!

my goal when creating recipes is to make my food simple, easy, and comforting. whether you're just learning how to cook or have been cooking for years, you've come to the right place! i hope you find my recipes helpful and enjoy them as much as i do.
