about

Welcome to Our Family Treat! We are glad you are here. As was requested by friends of ours, we started this blog privately in April of 2009.    We finally went public the end of July of 2009, and it has grown from there!   

Brooks spends 1/2 of his time as a sales manager, and the other 1/2 as a great husband, father, and cook.  He loves football, family and fun.  He works hard to provide for the family, and works even harder to keep me happy.  His culinary point of view is heavily influenced by his family from the south, and his two years spent in Italy. The fusion of flavors he brings are simple, and elegant, and are perfect for the working dad to come home and make for his family.   

I (Lindsay) am a stay at home mom to three beautiful kids. I also run an etsy shop and sell my super cute earrings, clips and headbands!  I enjoy reading, watching reality tv (horrible I know), University of Utah football, date nights with my hubby, hanging out with my family, sports, being in the sun, traveling, Italy, chatting with my girlfriends, and chocolate covered cinnamon bears.  My style of cooking is more comfort food.  I grew up in the kitchen at a very young age baking and providing for all my family.  Now, with a family of my own,  I love to be in the kitchen providing something great that didn't take me all day.

Our Family Treat is inspired by what sometimes is the only time we have together.... kitchen time.  Our recipes are mostly easy, always delicious, and provide us with plenty of memories that will last a lifetime.
