Welcome to Blush & Bloom Blog!
Hi, I’m Sarah!
The Blush and Bloom blog is the place for you to find enjoyable recipes from effortless dinner recipes, and simple sourdough recipes, to delectable desserts. Here you will also find cozy home inspiration and 5 sweet furry faces. Here’s a little bit about me…
My husband and I have been married for 7 years and live on several acres of land. We have 5 sweet dogs and have recently added 6 chickens making us first-time chicken owners. Since moving onto our land, and going through some extremely challenging times, I have begun to crave a more simple, intimate, and effective life. I have spent a few years learning how to make sourdough starters, bake delicious sourdough loaves and treats, raise and care for our 6 chickens, begin to garden and grow beautiful food from seed, and create a remarkable cozy home that leads to a more desirable life. Now I am so incredibly eager to begin sharing bits and pieces of my daily life along with the recipes I am making and creating weekly!
One thing about me is that I have a strong passion for creating wholesome, from-scratch, healthy recipes. I, also, believe in your surroundings being a large part of how you feel every day. So keeping my home and life clean, decluttered, and simple has become very important to me. I love baking sourdough bread, making from-scratch meals, and supporting our local farmers every chance I can. I’m here to show you that you can do all of this too and it’s easier than you may think.
The five furry faces behind Blush & Bloom Blog!
Our 5 dogs are Irish, Indie, Coconut, Doodle, and Willow. These girls bring so much joy into my life every single day. They are my little fur babies. Follow along on IG to see more of their sweet faces.
The meaning behind the name Blush & Bloom blog…
I chose the word blush for a few reasons…First, I love all shades of the color pink! Second, when I looked into what the color blush stands for I found that it symbolizes fondness, health, hope, and tenderness. All of these words resonate so well with what I find to be of the most importance in my life these days.
The word bloom was chosen to follow because of what it means- a state or time of beauty and freshness, a state or time of high development. I see blooming as a form of growth and I strive to always continue growing and developing myself for the better every day.
Five fun facts about me:
- I have five sisters…Yes, it was a lot at times but we survived all living under one roof and now get to be friends with one another!
- My favorite season is by far Fall. I love football season, the warmth in the spices of Fall flavors, the leaves changing and covering the grounds, the cool mornings and warm afternoons. Fall is truly my happiest time of year.
- I dream of owning two donkeys and two goats someday.
- If I could travel to any place tomorrow I would choose to go to Patagonia! It is the number one place on my bucket list at the moment.
- Lastly, I love country music! A few of my favorite artists at the moment are Kacey Musgraves, Jelly Roll, Morgan Wallen, and Chris Stapleton!
