Hi there! I’m Rachel Jones. Most people know me for being a minimalist blogger at Nourishing Minimalism, but like everyone else, I have a variety of things I’m passionate about.
I never thought I was a gift-person until I was taking one of those quizzes to find out what my love language was… and instead of saying “gift” someone said “favorite candy bar” and I realized then and there that my love language is food. 😂
Not only do I enjoy receiving it or being taken out to restaurants, when I love someone, I also want to cook something for them. I want to share all the delicious things that I have discovered.

Over the years I’ve had many friends and family ask for recipes, so having them online is the perfect way to share with those I love.
And I’d like to invite you on this food-loving journey with me. 😁
ALSO– I’ve teamed up with my friend Gerald to create our own cooking show. I’m a reserved person, and Gerald it a little intense. So if you would enjoy watching me cringe while he makes messes- come on over and get a laugh: Good For You Cooking
More personal stuff:
I’m married to a great guy with a great beard: Brian. Together, we have 6 kids ranging in age from 5-23 (only one girl, except now we got us a daughter-in-law. Yay!).
We tend to be home-bodies most of the time, but we do enjoy camping and being in the mountains.
Brian is an avid chain-mailler, he and the younger kids have a booth at our local Renaissance Festival each year, and he’s taught them how to make chainmaille jewelry.
