Hi, I’m Kat, creator of Be Kind to My Friend, a Kathipsterhandcraft blog. This is a collection of thoughts, recipes, and little wisdom nuggets gathered along the way. It’s for anyone trying to cook more—whether for fun, health, necessity, or the challenge of accommodating every dietary quirk at a dinner party.

Here, you’ll find pre-tested recipes categorized by effort, accessibility, and taste, along with tips for making food, entertaining, and life in general a little more manageable. Expect humor, self-reflection, and gentle reminders to be kind to my friend—you.

Hello & Welcome

Hi there! I’m Kathipsterhandcraft, a passionate home cook, creative recipe tester, and self-care enthusiast. This is my website where I share my journey of cooking through life’s chaos. I live in central North Carolina, where I experiment with flavors, enjoy the company of my loved ones, and find joy in creating homemade meals. I love to explore simple yet creative ways to bring food into the heart of life.
