I always love reading about the authors behind my favorite blogs, so I figured you should probably know a little bit about me! I'm Sophie- 16, blogger, baker, photographer, traveller, runner, and granola extraordinaire. I'm the happiest me when I'm experimenting in the kitchen with hopes of creating something yummy and nourishing. I love discovering new-to-me ingredients, coming up with scrumptious recipes, and sharing them on my little blog. Other loves of mine include avocados, slow mornings, black coffee, messy buns, and Instagram. I have a passion for health, wellness, balance, and cookies. I believe in moderation and tasting a bit of everything. My eating philosophy is pretty much summed up in this quote by Julia Child:
"Moderation. Small helpings. Sample a bit of everything. These are the secrets of happiness & good health."
I think that a healthy diet is a little bit different for everyone. For me, it's lots of veggies, a mostly vegan lifestyle, and a good amount of (healthy) baked goods because that's what makes me happy and makes me feel the best inside. My goal is to show the world- or the minuscule percentage of it that reads my little space in the interwebs- that healthy living doesn't have to be boring. You don't need to swear off chocolate forever. You don't have to deprive yourself. You don't have to give up your favorite foods. And you most certainly don't have to live without yummy, simple, sweets. Simply eat natural, delicious food and your body and soul will be eternally grateful.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog! My hope is to inspire you to satisfy your sweet tooth without bursting your pants button. Please take a look around! I'm so glad you found My Happy Place.
Loves muffins,
