A family journey toward simple food, intentional living,and long-term financial stability.
Life doesn’t always unfold the way we expect and over the years, ours has shifted in many ways.
We are the Cornelius-Ford family and for a long time our days centred around home education, slow living and building a life that worked for our children. That season shaped us deeply, teaching us the value of rhythm, resourcefulness and learning to do things for ourselves.
As life changed, so did our focus.
Today, alongside work, growing responsibilities, and new routines, we are learning how to live intentionally within our limits… choosing what truly matters, letting go of what no longer fits and building steadily rather than rushing toward quick fixes.
This space is where we share that journey.
What we focus on here
At the heart of our life are three simple priorities:
Simple Food
We believe good food doesn’t need to be complicated. From-scratch baking, practical meals and food that nourishes both body and home are central to how we live, not for perfection, but for sustainability.
Intentional Living
We’re learning to live more simply, to create systems that support real life and to shape our home around what helps us thrive in this season. That means honest routines, thoughtful choices and plenty of grace for imperfection.
Building Stability
Rather than chasing quick wins, we are focused on long-term steadiness… saving where we can, exploring side hustles thoughtfully and making financial decisions that support our family’s future step by step.
Why we share
This isn’t a space for polished answers or perfectly finished systems.
It’s a place to share what’s working, what we’re learning and what we’re still figuring out… in real time, in real life.
If you’re navigating change, rebuilding routines or quietly working toward a more grounded way of living, you’re very welcome here.
