Hi, we are Luke & Kay self-confessed foodies, living in Chelmsford, England. Together we have 4 children, 2 dogs, 2 African land snails and a very bossy cat!
We met in 2016 through a dating agency, we had many things in common, but the biggest love for both of us was FOOD and our kids!
Another thing in common is we have both been married and divorced and have 2 children each from our previous marriages.
So we were very fortunate as a dating couple we would have one child-free weekend when we love to go out for fancy dinners or surprise each other with romantic date night meals.
Then when we have all 4 children, as a family of 6 you can only imagine we spend a lot of time in the kitchen feeding them or creating a 'mess' cooking with them!
We have made some amazing recipes in the years together. Most of which we hand wrote into a tatty homemade recipe book (which was just a notepad with 'Flawless' written on the front). Hence the name 'Flawless Food'.
In 2019 Luke decided he wanted a career change, so after much deliberation, Flawless Food was born! We have shared 100's of our recipes so far and have so many more to come still!
During our own experience of finding recipes to cook each other, we love the ease of using US imperial measurements. However, when it comes to some recipes we find the UK metric measurements so much more accurate.
So we provide measurements in most of our recipes to suit both our American & British audiences. We also have a handy oven temperature conversion for Fahrenheit to fan oven.
Our kids favourite meals are Cheese and Bacon Turnovers, Easy Cheesy Pasta Bake, Fish Chowder & Gammon Roast with all the trimmings (Yorkshire Puddings, Roast Potatoes, Vegetables with Glaze).
The kids love to get involved with what we are cooking, we try to do a mixture of different dishes, ranging from healthy to really naughty, and lots of different cuisines which we have recreated from our travels.
Travelling
We love travelling and trying out different cuisines from all countries. We are slowly making our way around the world!
Owners of a motorhome which we get to travel around Europe in whilst still working & enjoying our home-cooked goodies!
Update for October 2022! We have now sold the motorhome and bought a VW camper van.
We have also started a second blog called Flawless Journeys, packed with advice on the best places to go, things to do and where to stay and what restaurants to eat at, to make the most of your time and money.
Whether you're looking for a budget-friendly trip or a luxury getaway, we've got something for everyone there! So go check it out!
About Luke from Flawless Food
Luke is a born and bred Essex boy, who started his career at a young age in the Army. He was a Rifleman, serving in the 2nd Battalion Royal Green Jackets. In his opinion the best regiment in the British Army.
He has 2 boys who mean the world to him and left the Army to spend more time being a family man.
Upon leaving the Army he was part owner of an Environmental Company, where he worked for 15 years.
Luke is very active and fitness driven and loves a good meal to help him with his training. He mostly loves savoury foods but can sometimes be coaxed into enjoying something sweet like a slice of Sultana Cake.
He has run two marathons (London & Brighton) and a ½ marathon raising money for the Children's Trust & Breast Cancer Care. In his rare spare time, he loves to go fishing.
He is the structured and regimental one on the team who gets things done! In charge of the schedule, social media, cooking and cleaning up after!
His favourite meal of ours is Persian Lamb Shanks with Saffron Couscous.
Luke has stared on the TV show - Grime Fighters during his environmental work.
About Kay from Flawless Food
Kay was born in London and raised in a quiet village in Surrey. After a start in management in supermarkets, she furthered her career working in food marketing for a Food Broker Company, where she is still working now!
She has two children, one teenage girl who is the fussiest eater you can ever imagine and a boy who loves his mums cooking!
Kay loves nothing more than to make her family happy. In her very limited spare time, she likes to keep fit doing Pilates and Yoga.
She loves sweet treats like a cheeky slice of Butterscotch Tart, oh and let's not forget her love of Prosecco or Cocktails.
She is the researcher and creative one, who spends more time dreaming of what to do than actually doing it! In charge of photography, recipe ideas, writing the blog posts, and creating a mess experimenting in the kitchen!
Her favourite recipe of ours Lamb Shish Kebab with Turkish Kebab Salad.
Kay has stared on the front cover of the Hair Dresser Journal magazine during her modelling days!
Kay's kids are homeschooled and love the more relaxed lifestyle of learning at home.
