hello, we are the cecis.
chickpeas. Also called: ceci beans. [‹ It, pl. of cece ‹ L cicer; cf. chickpea]
hey there.
We don’t take our presence on your screen, inbox or ear buds lightly.
A little about us: Michael and I are both from the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia. We met in high school, fell madly in love, did long distance throughout college (him in Colorado, me in Georgia), got married one month after graduation and Michael’s commission into the US Air Force, and immediately moved to Maryland!
Since then we have lived in Mississippi, Arkansas, Germany (where we had David), Georgia (where we had Andy) and now, Texas! (Where we birthed a podcast.)
This blog started as a place for me to share our adventures as a military family and as the years have gone by, I have felt a desire to create, share and connect deeper in this space.
Now it is a place we get to share low-tox living & healthy swaps, our podcast: Your People, and our blog about our life and things we find valuable and lovely.
Our last name is Ceci, which in Italian means “chickpea.” Which is convenient, because we love food. Cooking it. Eating it. Exploring it in different cultures. Hosting and breaking bread with friends and family. You will find that theme runs heavy here in the best way.
I hope you feel welcomed here, friend. That you feel loved, encouraged, and connected. Let’s dive in…together!
