I’m
Anayah Sangodele-Ayoka, MSEd a twenty-something first time mother and wife on a mission for balance – in my home, life, and body. I share my thoughts and insights about being a new mother, maintaining a purposeful marriage, women’s reproductive health, balance and fulfillment, and sisterhood.
My professional background is in teaching (primarily high school) and childbirth education, but becoming a mother has made me more courageous about following my passions for food, health, travel and natural living. So, you’ll certainly see that reflected in the content here with recipes, profiles of healthful foods, how-tos, and reviews of convenience items. Be warned encouraged, that I proudly lead a plant-based lifestyle, so there won’t be anything about animal meats or by-products here.
I’m also a founding board member of a local food cooperative and a sorority woman organizing programs in my community.

Girl! I didn’t know you had a blog! I’m enjoying it so far. Did Kenneth tell you he finally bought me a house;)
We moved in on October 1st. You know we ain’t never had nothing, so we are too excited! God is good!
Wow. Congratulations! It has to be a great feeling to be able to give the experience if living in a home with a yard for the children. We’ll get there one day.
Thanks so much or visiting my lil blog and commenting. I’ve loved yours for years and would drop by from time to time. You know we didn’t grow up seeing married people or even purposeful relationships, so I’m learning with my peers. Ain’t this sumthin!
Yes girl! This really is sumthin’

Hey Tiffany!
Your blog is too cute. I thought I was crafty until I saw what you’ve been up to. The hat you made Chloe was adorable; I’ll have to keep reading through for examples of lil handsome things for boys.
I know what you mean about naptime. I do 95% of my blogging from my deploying while he’s napping on me or something. Much love to you!
I found your site by accident, but accidents can produced the most beautiful results. I love your site. I have a 7M old that I am breastfeeding exclusively. This is the first time i have breastfeed. I am loving the experience. I am a previous vegetarian finding my way back home. I love your recipes, keep them coming.
Thanks MAC
