Meet Nicole The Butterfly Girl

Thank you for visiting The Butterfly Chronicles! Growing up, I spent most of my time in the kitchen with my two amazing Grams and my one-of-a-kind mother learning about our family's precious recipes and traditions. During COVID 2020, I created this blog as a creative outlet to share all the simple joys that bring us all closer together. Like the love of family, or a great book or movie that lets you escape the stresses of the day and transports you to a whole new world.  Those comfort food recipes that bring you back to those cherished conversations you had with family and friends from the kitchen table, now with thousands of followers this lifestyle blog has blossomed into a vibrant community where I share delicious recipes, heartwarming family stories, book recommendations, self-care and beauty tips, restaurant reviews, and insights into the latest in movies and television. Come along with me as I share my joys, experiences and stories from life as a small town Iowa girl.
