Imagine laying in a hospital bed after the most horrific car accident of your life hurt, confused, and LITERALLY broken. Imagine being homeless with 5 kids while going through a tumultuous divorce.
It’s been a long road for me and my family, but we have come out on the other side stronger than ever. In June 2021, I found myself in an unimaginable situation after being involved in a horrific car accident that left me broken both physically and mentally. To make matters worse, I was facing a divorce with five kids to care for while homeless at the same time.
I was raised to never question God during difficult times like these, so instead of giving up hope I chose faith as my guide through this journey of healing and rebuilding our lives from scratch. My children were –and still are–my biggest source of motivation throughout all this hardship; they kept reminding me that if you work hard enough anything is possible! This has become our motto here at Sassy Kitchens: “When life gives you salt use it for seasoning!”
At Sassy Kitchens we strive not only to cook good food but to also inspire you to overcome what life may throw your way. We believe strongly in Proverbs 22:6 which states “Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it”; therefore we want everyone who visits this space to feel inspired to become more self-aware and self-controlled so that you can make wise decisions!
My experience has taught me resilience and strength despite adversity; however, most importantly it showed just how powerful family bonds are when working together towards achieving common goals regardless of circumstances or challenges faced along the way. And so this blog will share all things faith, family, food, mental health, community service, and Sassy updates.
Stay tuned for laughs, lessons, and blessings over meals and great conversations…

Thank you friend!
I’m looking forward to keeping up with your blog and visiting the restaurant! The food looks amazing!
I recently read something I would like to paraphrase. Sometimes when we need and ask God for certain things; in contrast, he allows the opposite at first. This is in order to truly cultivate what is needed to accomplish and secure those things in which we ask for or need. Example – You ask/ or need strength and courage; God allows challenges and obstacles. In the process, you rightfully earn strength and courage. This is truly God’s way; no short cuts, real lessons, patience, endurance, accountability, self reflection = change. As well as those gifts he sends along the way, as grace, compassion and forgiveness to name a few!
You’re right – the most important thing is family bonds; despite the challenges faced along the way.
May God continue to bless you and family, placing you in the position to build not only wealth but wisdom, which is the greatest protection (Ecclesiastes 7:12).
With love 🌻
