Tara Kuczykowski, founder of Unsophisticook

Hi! I'm Tara.

nice to meet you!

I'm an almost empty-nester just trying to figure out how much to cook for dinner! My husband Luke and I live in Ohio with a varying number of our 5 kids on any given day, but a little oceanfront bungalow is our dream. My fave things include cooking + baking (obvs!), beach days, my JEEP Wrangler 392XR, and a cold paloma drink…
