Real mom: Lori Lange of Recipe Girl
Lori Lange is the author of the popular food blog, Recipe Girl. This site is so easy to navigate through over 2700 of Lori’s favorite recipes! This real mom shared her passion of food with her son, Brooks who created his own site HERE. Both food blogs are inspiring, creative and most of all fun! She has been featured on Oprah.com, Glamour and appeared on QVC selling her best selling cookbook!
With Valentines Day around the corner Lori is sharing her recipe for Red Velvet Cheesecake! Read below to get this recipe plus a chance to win a signed copy of Lori’s cookbook!
Background: I grew up in San Jose, CA > Carson City, NV > then San Diego, CA for college. Elementary school teacher for 12 years then quit teaching to take care of my son and start a website! I lived in San Diego for 28 years before moving (this year) to the mountains near Lake Tahoe, NV.
Husband: Brian- has his own company- management development, sales and leadership training, keynote speaking. A “Life of the Party,” outgoing kind of guy. His best friends are people he met on an airplane.
Children: 12 year old son- Brooks – crazy into every sport imaginable. (has his own food blog- RecipeBoy.com)
Who has been your greatest mentor along the way? Not really anyone in particular. I was among the early food bloggers, and I think we just kind of all visited each other’s blogs and have helped each other out along the way.
First thing you do in the morning: Weigh myself (ha!) Then I go straight to my computer to see if a website crisis happened overnight.
Describe your personal style: I’m a boots and jeans kinda girl with a drawer full of fun jewelry.
How you stay fit: I get in a cardio workout for 30 minutes minimum every single day (no matter what!). We invested in good quality gym equipment to keep in our home- it’s the only way I can get it done!
Number one beauty item: Mango Mend Treatment Balm- it’s fixes dry cuticles, heels, elbows, and I put it on my lips every night when I go to bed. It’s magical.
Favorite healthy snack: Cheese and almonds! Or Greek yogurt.
Guilty pleasure: cookie dough, root beer and really good ice cream.
Favorite tradition: Spending 3 weeks in a beach house every summer on the South Shore of Boston, MA
How you spend your “me” time: shopping, of course!
How you balance life: I’m still working on that one.
Lori has created one of the great red velvet cheesecakes!
