About Alice

Hello, my name is Alice.  I’m the cook, baker, writer, and photographer of SavorySweetLife.com.  I love my family, drink way too much coffee, and keep a secret stash of chocolate hidden from my children like every good mommy does.  I’ve been married to Rob  for 11 years and have three of the greatest children (Abbi-10, Mimi-9, and Eli-3) a mother could ever have hoped for.  Each day I manage our household as a stay-at-home mom.  On any given day you can find me  shuttling my kids to and from school, sports practices, and cooking up recipes to share with you.  After everyone has gone to bed, I am often working on blog related things until the wee hours of the morning munching on snacks I probably shouldn’t be.  You should also know I have a personal blog called Everyday Alice.  You won’t find recipes there but you will find a word of encouragement from musings about life, parenting, and self-reflections through a faith perspective.

Converse Shoe Cake for my nephew, Isaiah

I started this blog as a creative outlet and an expression of many things I enjoyed most in life:  food, photography, and most importantly sharing with others.  When it comes to the recipes on Savory Sweet Life, I prefer to keep it simple, approachable, yet wonderful to eat and enjoy with others.  I launched Savory Sweet Life the last week of February of 2009 and since then my life has never been the same (press mentions).  Two of my blogging career highlights happened in March 2010 when Forbes.com named me as one of “Eight Of The Very Best Bloggers” and shortly after I won Saveur.com’s first ever “Photo Cover Contest.” I love what I do and deeply appreciate everyone who has supported me along the way and continues to do so!

Littlest Petshop Birthday Cake

Prior to having children I worked in the design and food service industry.  My background in 3D animation and restaurant experience eventually led me to start my own wedding cake business. Although I no longer do wedding cakes anymore, I still bake and decorate birthday cakes for each of my children.
