A kitchen big enough for everyone’s recipes.

Our Big Family Kitchen was built to solve a familiar family problem: the recipes are everywhere.

Some are in old cookbooks. Some are on handwritten cards. Some live in someone’s memory, in a text thread, in a photo, or in the answer to “Can you send me that again?”

This site gives all of those recipes a place to land.

It sits alongside the original Leusch family archive, which preserves Aunt Laura’s 2003 cookbook and the recipes passed down through that branch of the family. Our Big Family Kitchen is the growing side: the place for the Sundy, Edwards, Hong, Quinn, Branion, and Leusch lines to add what we cook now, what we remember, and what we want the next generation to be able to find.

Recipes here do not have to be perfect. They can be old or new, fancy or practical, fully tested or still waiting for someone’s note in the margin. The goal is not to make a flawless cookbook. The goal is to keep the food, the stories, and the people connected.

For now, the kitchen is private and invitation-only. If you’re here, pull up a chair.
