Hi, we’re Sami & Nicole!

Welcome to Cook Time Story. We created this space to share our love of home cooking and the delicious recipes that have come out of our tiny home kitchen in Washington, DC. We both come from households that instilled in us a love of cooking from an early age, as we helped our mothers in the kitchen. Food is an integral part of our identities and our fondest memories are tied to home-cooked meals made with fresh ingredients and lots of love.

We’re here to show you that cooking doesn’t need to be complicated and involve elaborate recipes. We want to show how you can take simple pantry staples and turn them into dishes that come together easily and without any complications. And in the process, we’re going to eat a lot of delicious, nourishing meals together. So let’s cook together!
