About Me

Hi! I’m Summer—the messy apron behind Summer & Cinnamon. I’m a mom of three boys, born in sunny Mesa, now living in the Utah mountains where I’ve traded busy city life for hiking trails and mixing bowls.
When I’m not chasing kids or playing sports, I’m in the kitchen cooking up simple, delicious recipes—with a whole lot of love (and cinnamon). What started as a hobby has turned into a full-blown passion.
This blog is my way of sharing the food that keeps my family full and my heart happy. I’m no fancy chef—just a girl with a spatula, a sweet tooth, and a serious love for real food.

Hello there!
