get to know me
Hi, I’m Kayla
Hi! I’m Kayla. Homemaker, baker, cooker, entertainer, traveler, holistic health and fitness enthusiast, and small town girl extraordinaire. Welcome. I’m so excited to show you my world. Throughout my life, I’ve found so many interests I love and have wanted to share them with others. In 2023, Army Wife, Sweet Life (formerly Whisks & Whimsies) was born. I wanted to create a place where I could share my love of food, hosting, travel, holistic health, and seasonal living.
Here are some fun facts about me:
- I am a coffee fanatic!
- I had a flip phone for years and refused to get a smart phone. I’d go back to a flip phone in a heartbeat.
- I play three instruments (piano, ukulele, and guitar) and I sing.
- I wrote a novel in 2014 when I was in between jobs. No, it’s not published. Yes, it’s terrible.
- My favorite season is fall. I embody every part of it, even theming my meals to go with the season!
- Gilmore Girls is my favorite TV show of all time. I began watching it the year the reunion came out (2016). Since then, I begin watching it every year on September 1st to kick off the fall season.
