Meet Nicki Woo

Hi, I’m Nicki Woo! Lunch Lady Extraordinaire, published author, and designer of this sweet little blog. I’m here to help bring sunshine to your lunches & everyday life with fresh nutritious good eats, DIY projects, and helpful tips on raising a family in the modern age. Life is a bowl of Jell-O, let’s eat it. Read More.




It's just me, food, and a house full of crazies.

Hi! I’m Nicole. And I like food A LOT. I dream about it, write about it, and I relate everything in my life to it. Here you’ll find stories about my four darling girls Shelbi (20), Bella (16), Soledad (14) And Phoebe (11), and how they relate to pasta, eggplant, and chocolate. I have a husband too. He’s a rockstar. Not actually. Just in my heart, that is made of Jello. See, I told you. It all relates.
