It goes without saying that we share a special bond as life-long best friends who just happen to be siblings of almost identical nature. We are both the strongest supporter and loudest critic of one another, which has led us to boast a relationship founded by equal parts courage and consideration. Essentially to us, this means that we can challenge each other while maintaining a high level of respect and open-mindedness for new ideas and adventures! It is through these unwavering aspects of our relationship, coupled with our passion for food and entertaining that we are thrilled to finally have a forum. 
       

 WE'RE TWINS!

 IS OUR FORUM TO SHARE OUR CREATIONS WITH ALL OF YOU! 

a communal feast soothes the soul

we would love to share a little taste of where we came from and where we are today. 

IT’S AS IF THE LOVE OF FOOD WAS BAKED DIRECTLY INTO OUR DNA. THERE IS AN INHERIT PASSION THAT’S PRESENT WHEN WE GATHER IN THE KITCHEN TO PREPARE MEALS FOR OUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY. IN OUR YOUTH, OUR GRANDMOTHER WOULD TAKE CARE OF US DURING THE HOT SUMMER DAYS AND AFTER PLAYING OUTSIDE WE WOULD JOIN HER IN THE KITCHEN WHERE SHE WOULD TEACH US TO BAKE A MYRIAD OF RECIPES. SHE WOULD EXPLAIN THE STEPS AND INGREDIENTS, WHAT THE FUNCTION OF EACH WAS, 

AND I BET SHE HAD A FEELING THAT A BYPRODUCT OF WHAT SHE WAS CREATING WAS ACTUALLY CHERISHED MEMORIES FOR US. WE MISS HER DEEPLY AND HER PASSION FOR COOKING WILL LIVE ON THROUGH US FOREVER. OUR FATHER IS ALSO AN EXCELLENT, ALBEIT SLIGHTLY UNORTHODOX, CHEF. HE IS THE BEHOLDER OF MANY SECRET RECIPES - RECIPES WHICH WE ENDEAVOR TO OBTAIN WHEN HE’S NOT LOOKING! MEAL TIME IS SACRED TIME. FEW EXPERIENCES IN LIFE COMPARE TO SHARING A WELL-PREPARED MEAL WITH YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY.

These are our pup!

WE GREW UP IN A RURAL AREA AND EXPERIENCED A PLETHORA OR RURAL ACTIVITIES LIKE RIDING ATVS, SNOWMOBILING, SWIMMING IN POOLS AND PONDS, AND WERE PART OF THE COOLEST BIKER (BICYCLE) GANG IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD.

THANKS FOR STOPING BY!

Please join us someday, cheers and
bon appétit! 

 We were competitively involved in soccer which consisted of five sessions per week, as well as skiing on the weekends in the winter and camping in the summer. Big thanks to our personal chauffeurs – Mom and Dad! When you converse with individuals who have hung out with us in the winter, one unforgettable bit of information is that we have 11 Siberian huskies who love to pull a sled! Kia, Fang, Krawl, Blue, Wolf, Storm, Snow, May, Luna, Phoenix, and Dallas are their names. 

Now that we’ve grown up and moved out we each have our own hubbies, Ryan and Curtis, and our own four-legged babies, Texas and Thor. We are die-hard Seattle Seahawks fans during the NFL season and hope to make a trip out west an annual tradition. Our most cherished moments are those when we gather with our friends and family over the weekend for specialty cocktails, pints, and a beautifully prepared communal feast!
