Hi there, my name is Ina Wrobel, I am a wife, a mother of two girls with dairy and nuts (not all nuts) allergy. My family lives in a small hamlet in Alberta, Canada.

I am the dairy-free recipe developer, photographer, food lover, crafter, gardener and creator of this blog.

Crafty For Home is a lifestyle blog covers topics of dairy-free recipes, home gardening, easy DIY project, fabric craft, paper craft and traveling with family. I wanted to show you that cooking and gardening also in crafting category, because we have to craft delicious meals for the family, or creating a beautiful garden.

I start Crafty For Home with dairy-free recipes after I found out one of my daughters had a severe dairy allergy when she was a baby. Right until now, I keep cooking dairy-free foods and develop more of new recipes that everyone in the family can enjoy.

In these days, dairy allergy is more common. We often thought what kind of meal to make with a dairy-free option. Surprisingly, there are lots of choices for dairy-free meals. Whole foods are naturally dairy-free, such as vegetables, fruits, meats, and eggs. On this blog, I provide delicious dairy-free recipes that are quick and easy to prepare for everyday cooking that fit into our busy lives.

There also premade dairy-free food we can get in every grocery store, like coconut yogurt, soy yogurt or vegan cheese. These are excellent options to incorporate into dairy-friendly meals. All recipes I create here are kids and grown-up friendly meals.

For gardening, I have square foot gardening boxes in the backyard. Gardening in zone 3 is challenging, because of the short growing season and unpredictable weather. Sometimes we get hail storm during summer which can ruin the garden. Or just rain for the whole month in summer. The last frost can come earlier or later. Same with the first frost can happen too early.

The garden provides us with an organic supply of vegetables. I involve the kids in gardening also, so they can learn about plants. Whether it is vegetable or flower, they always have their idea how to garden. I provide step by step how to propagate the plant, how to create a garden with limited space, and how to grow food in your yard.
