Hello! Thank you for being here. I’m Sally, the writer and photographer behind Sweet Peas and ABCs. I’m married to my husband of 11 years, Jon, mama to the two most adorable little girls, Em and Addie, and a teacher and cook at heart.
My husband, the girls and I currently live in a small town outside of Milwaukee, WI. I’m an avocado-loving California girl originally from sunny Orange County, and Jon is a meat and potatoes guy, from Green Bay, WI (Go Pack!). Em, our sweet, sensitive and caring older daughter and Addie, our joyful, independent and hilarious younger daughter, get a little flavor of both and are the inspiration behind this blog.

I have always loved cooking and baking for as long as I can remember. Do you know any other twelve year olds that ask for a pasta maker for Christmas?! I distinctly remember coming home from middle school and trying to make my own dough by experimenting with ingredients in the kitchen. Why I didn’t just follow a recipe and actually make something edible, I have no idea. But I had the bug.
These days, I still have the cooking bug and when someone calls and asks where I am, the answer is usually, “in the kitchen.” What’s more is that I’ve now got the itch to pass this love of cooking and eating to my little ones. And hopefully share some ideas that will inspire others to get in the kitchen with their kids.
Check out “About Sweet Peas & ABCs” to learn more about how this all got started and what you can expect to find on my blog.
