Why I Started This Blog
People often ask, “Who is behind My Tasteful Threads?” I’m someone who loves cooking, crafting, reading, and exploring new places. I started this blog as a way to share my passions, tips, and personal experiences, and to connect with a community of like-minded people.
It began as a small space to share my crochet and knitting projects, and over time, it grew into something more. With a background in time management (and a habit of always keeping a list!), blogging became a way to combine my love of food, crafts, and life organization.
Initially, I focused heavily on DIY crafts and family recipes, but over time, I’ve expanded to include travel experiences, book discoveries, and lifestyle ideas. Financial tips are still part of the mix — you’ll see them as small insights throughout the blog — but the focus now is on creating memorable experiences and practical inspiration.
Now, I share stories and ideas meant to inspire — from handmade projects to quick recipes and mindful living tips.
You’ll notice that I divide my content into three main Threads — the inspiration behind the name My Tasteful Threads: Stitch, Stir, and Save.
Each “thread” connects to something I love — whether it’s creating, cooking, or finding little ways to make life better.

“My Tasteful Threads” has always been about connecting creativity, flavor, and simple living. The three main threads of the blog are:
- Recipes: Easy, flavorful dishes for every occasion

I also sprinkle in practical tips for daily life, including brief financial suggestions.

At the heart of My Tasteful Threads is creativity and connection. I love making things — from new recipes to cozy crafts — and finding ways to make everyday life a bit brighter.
Some of my favorite things include:
- Crocheting simple but beautiful patterns

- Exploring local spots and discovering hidden gems while traveling
