Freezer Cooking

The clock strikes 5 o’clock and my home seems to transform into a war zone. The baby’s flinging toys across the living room and my preschooler is repeating over and over, “I’m hungry. I’m hungry.” Sound familiar? For many parents mealtime mayhem is just part of the daily grind. But it doesn’t have to be.Read the whole post >>

Slim Goodbody

It’s never too early to start teaching children about their health. Just recently my 3-year-old and I had a conversation about why man cannot live on ice cream alone.

Hi, I’m Kate

 

I'm the author of two nonfiction books Getting Past Perfect and Weightless, a storyteller*, overthinker, eating disorder survivor, mom of five, book junkie, socially awkward nerd as well as a speaker (so basically a walking and talking contradiction), and a perfectionist in recovery.

I am currently working towards my MFA in Fiction at Warren Wilson. Thank you to everyone who has read my drafts, offered feedback, and cheered me on. The writing life is often solitary, but I wouldn’t be here without a community of support.
