Who I Am

Bjork and Lindsay

Hi and welcome! I’m Lindsay. and I do the cooking, writing, and photography around these parts.

This is my husband Bjork, and he’s in charge of the tech support and income stuff for Pinch of Yum. Plus he’s cute and I like him. Together we’re the Pinch of Yum team.

{We are also the Food Blogger Pro team!}

teaching

In June of 2012, we moved from Minneapolis to Cebu City in the Philippines to work at an orphanage for a year.

Back home in Minneapolis, I’m a 4th grade teacher, and here in the Philippines, I’m also a teacher. Funny how that works, huh? I spend most of my days here in a “classroom” with a group of sweet preteen girls who are the light of my life.

In the cooking department, I’m a food enthusiast with an appetite for almost anything. I like healthy food. I love desserts, especially straight up salted dark chocolate. I try to cook things that are easy, interesting, and delicious. I adore noodles, curry, lentils, vegetarian food, and pasta. Is that the same as noodles? Doesn’t matter. I love it all.

Some of my favorite things in life are chocolate chip cookies, lake runs in the fall, Chipotle, cute pugs, and learning more about Jesus.

Here’s more about why I blog.
