Welcome! I’m Karen and I love to cook, travel, and read. I even love reading blogs about all three of these topics. As I am a writer and web developer by trade, I decided to use my skills for fun and start my own blog about topics I enjoy. I named the blog “Square Lily Pad” because I already had the domain name from a previous project and I really like the name. For me it evokes a pretty (Lily) place (Pad) to hang out that is a bit unexpected (Square?). And yes, I know that my most recent redesign eschews square images in favor of wider images, but it’s my blog and I like it that way. I don’t get paid for this or make any money on it, I do it just for fun and so I can do with it whatever I want.
Enough about me, what about the blog? What can you can you find here? On this blog, you’ll find recipes I love, places I’ve traveled, and information on other hobbies and projects (for example, learning German and cooking) that I do with all the details you need to do it yourself. I am an American living in Switzerland, and both of these factors heavily influence what I post on this blog, from what kind of recipes I post to where most of the hiking and biking trails I do are.
Thank you for visiting and I hope you find things to enjoy here.
