About Lara
Previously writing under the pen name Sleepless in Amman - I am a working mother of two. I quit a corporate career to co-found my business with my husband Oz. I believe in raising my two daughters to become strong and independent women, and somewhere along the line, I find time to blog, develop recipes, and just live life one day at a time. Welcome to the life of a working mother.
