About Sweet Savory Sustainable

Hi, I’m Angie.

A California native, Bay Area raised. I work in talent insights and analytics by day. The rest of the time I’m raising two boys, tending chickens, feeding dogs, growing food, painting, sketching, writing, and trying to keep things steady in a world that is not.

Sweet Savory Sustainable started as a place to share food. There’s still food… lots of it in the kitchen and the garden. But it’s also become a place for my version of sustainable living and the practical art of starting over. I won’t be perfect but it will be useful.

This is where I document what I’m learning, cooking, creating, and what I’m rebuilding. Real food, strength training at home, and creative ideas that fit my life.

What you’ll find here

  • Strength at Home
    Strength training at home, walking, lifting heavy things, jiu-jitsu mom life, and realistic habits I can actually repeat.
  • Creative Roots
    Watercolor, acrylic, sketching, photography, writing, and creative ideas I’m collecting as I return to the craft.
  • The Nourished Homestead
    Real food, scratch cooking, seasonal recipes, garden and chicken life, and meal planning for sanity in chaos.

Why I share

I learn by doing and I retain the process it by documenting it.

I share because I want this to be useful. Sharing helps me process what I am experiencing.

And yes, I’m a data nerd. This site is where I slice, dice, test, tweak, and document.

If you take one idea and it helps you in any way, that matters.

What I’m building

Over time I’m turning what works for me into simple resources you can use too. It may come in the form of unintentional meal prep guides, seasonal garden to dos, creative ideas, and realistic routines for home, health, and daily life. Useful, and hopefully easy to implement for our full lives.

Sweet Savory Sustainable is my corner of the internet for starting over in midlife and sharing the journey. I’m rebuilding strength at home, feeding my body with real food, and returning to art, all while building my career and raising two boys. If you’re starting over too, welcome.
