OUR SONG AND OUR HEART
A few years ago, we made the shift to live each day with intention. This effected all areas of our life, from the food we eat, the skincare we use, to our mindset and how we approach life. We will be sharing all of these with you here, hopefully inspiring you to live with Intention.
I reached out to Daniel Smith and asked him to write a song for us. I gave him some background on our family, our goals and what we plan to share. He wrote this amazing song for us that I feel like encompasses my business and our life. If you would like to find more of Daniels work you can find him on Instagram and on YouTube. He is a talented artist and I am forever grateful for him taking the time and using his talent to write this for us.
Here at The Padilla Family Homestead we are intentionally living, intentionally loving and intentionally growing where we are. So, come to the table and sit with us for a while. Come to the garden and walk with us for a while. We are thankful you are here in our little corner of the world and hope you subscribe to our newsletter and to our blog.

INTENTIONALLY GROWING WHERE WE ARE
We are currently finding ourselves in world of transition. As we move throughout the next few seasons, I will be sharing how I am choosing to grow where we are. I will also be sharing what we are growing and why we are growing it. We have been apartment gardening in zone 9b and have failed and succeeded and many things in the garden. I will be sharing some of the knowledge I have gained along the way.
CREATING AN INTENTIONAL MINDSET AND LIFE
The only thing in life we have absolute control over is our selves! We choose how we view the world, when and if we are offended, and the legacy we leave behind. Some of our posts will dive into topics that are meant to help you dig deeper and live each day with intention. We will touch on a variety of topics, all with the focus of Intentionally Living.
WHat inspires Our Recipes
Why It All Started
01
Health Issues
My daughter has to be gluten free, my husband needs lower sugar, and I need a low sodium diet. As you can imagine eating out with any of these is difficult let alone finding all three in one place.
02
Quality & Cost
When we started out on our health journey the cost of food was and is climbing in cost. So sourcing good quality in bulk and actually using it was and is key.
03
Cravings
Finding healthier options for the junk food we craved was imperative for us to stay on the wagon. Gluten Free pumpkin spice recipes were a game changer for my daughter.
SHOP E-BOOKS AND DIGITAL DOWNLOADS
We have created some seasonal Gluten-Free Recipe E-Books and some free PDFs to make home cooking easier for you.
