About

Hi, I’m Amanda Wink, the heart and hands behind Amanda’s Cooking Thyme! My love for cooking began during the quiet days of COVID, when I first started experimenting in the kitchen. But it wasn’t until I moved into my own college apartment that I truly fell in love with the freedom of cooking—being able to make whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted.

Later, when I moved back home to finish school, I started making dinner for my parents as a sort of “rent.” That’s when everything clicked. I began sharing recipes on Instagram, creating fun and engaging reels, and building a community of food lovers just like me.

Now, I’m diving even deeper into the world of cooking and baking—and I couldn’t be more excited to share this journey with you. I love creating engaging reels, trying new twists on classic dishes, and connecting with other food lovers along the way. Whether you’re here for inspiration, new ideas, or just a cozy corner of the internet to explore food, welcome to Amanda’s Cooking Thyme!
