    About Me

    Welcome to Happy Honey Kitchen!

    I’m Angela. Thanks for being here!

    Happy Honey Kitchen started as a creative outlet to share my joy and passion for cooking. HHK is a space for (mostly) Quick, Healthy-ish, Always Delish recipes for busy home cooks who love flavor. Plus, cocktails for happy hour!

    My goal is to inspire creativity and happiness in your kitchen with recipes that fuel your body and mind.

    A Little About Me...

    I was born and raised in Dallas, Texas. I currently live in Sugar Land (a suburb of Houston) with my husband, JJ, and our fur baby, Donnie.

    As a teenager, I started cooking to help my parents get dinner on the table after work. Soon after, I discovered that I love cooking rather than it being a chore. The kitchen became my happy place.

    In college, at Texas Tech University, I studied restaurant management and took wine and culinary classes with hopes of one day being in the food and beverage industry.

    My goals took another form and I became a teacher, teaching preschool though 4th grade. After teaching for 10 years, I realized I had more dreams to pursue, so I packed up my classroom and headed home... to cook!

    Travel

    My favorite thing to do is go where I've never been.

    I have a serious case of wanderlust! One of my hobbies is finding new destinations to add to my travel bucket list and planning trip itineraries. I’m always planning my next adventure!
