About Iris and Honey
Hi, I’m Mikaela and welcome to my blog, Iris and Honey!
The recipes on this site focus on seasonal foods and healthy ingredients. I use fruits, veggies, and herbs from my own garden as well other ingredients from local farms and businesses in Pennsylvania. I love simple and tasty ingredients and recipes. One motto I follow is that life is too short to eat bad food and I strive to make every recipe on my blog healthy and delicious.
In addition to recipes, you’ll also find lifestyle posts related to local businesses and my chronic illnesses.
I am Central Pennsylvania born and raised and I never plan on leaving. Most of my family has been in the area since the late 1700’s, so my ties to this area are strong. Focusing on what I can grow or purchase locally allows me to connect with those roots. I am also able to educate myself and my readers on what I eat and where it comes from.
As my blog grows, I look forward to strengthening my relationship with the local community!
