Welcome to Cait’s Plate and thanks for visiting!
I began Cait’s Plate back in 2009 as a way to share and inspire both myself and others to try new things, get creative in the kitchen, eat healthier when possible, indulge when you want to and just enjoy life to the fullest!
Over the years it has evolved into so much more as I do my best to balance a career, a social life, being active, having fun and eating really good food.
If you ever have any questions – please feel free to email me at caitsplate@gmail.com. I’m always happy to hear what you have to say 🙂
**Just to preface this – I’m not certified as a nutritionist or a registered dietitian so nothing I say or do should be taken in that context.
This is cool.
Thanks Sean – glad you like it 🙂
welcome to the strange world of blogging
Ha – thanks Tom 🙂 We miss you over here in the states!
What a cooooool job! I’m so jealous! I already love your blog. I’m currently working toward becoming an RD, as well. How exciting! I’m so glad I found your blog.
Thank you so much – that’s so sweet of you!! And yes, working at Health is DEFINITELY a great job! I couldn’t ask for a better environment to be surrounded by on a daily basis!
Congrats on taking the steps towards becoming an RD – you’re setting yourself up to help many people out which is an amazing thing.
I hope I continue to keep Cait’s Plate exciting for you to read and definitely look forward to your feedback! 🙂
I love your website. Keep it up!!!
Thanks Jackie! And thanks for reading!! I hope you’re well 🙂
Great blog, Cait! I am trying to start one myself and am a big fan of the same blogs you are. Keep up the great work!
Also, how did you find a job with Health? I’m moving to NYC in a few months and would LOVE to find a job in the health/publishing/editing field.
Hey Emily! So exciting that you’ll be moving to the city! I actually came upon this job because I had done a Time Inc. Networking thing in college and I had specified that Health was my area of interest. I’ll definitely keep my eyes peeled around here and let you know if I hear of any openings, but otherwise I’d suggest mediabistro.com – it’s a GREAT source for publishing jobs 🙂 GOOD LUCK and thanks for reading!!
Love your blog! Such a dream job to work at Health magazine!!!! Looking forward to reading more!
Thanks so much for reading homecookedem, I’m so glad you like it 🙂
What a cool job! I love your blog so far!
Thanks! Right back atchya 🙂
Hey Cait!
What do you do at Health? I’m a media planner in the city and meet with ad sales reps from Health. I was an avid follower of the same blogs as you, and also just recently started my own blog! I was excited to see another NY blogger (doesn’t it seem like everyone is in the South??). I’ll be reading! Check mine out if you get a chance!

Hi! Just found your blog – love it! And I LOVE Health magazine! What exactly do you do there? I was a journalism major in college but unfortunately never pursued it.
Hey Lainie – I’m so glad you like it! I work in the marketing department for Health and I absolutely love it!
Yeah a New Jerseyan! I just found your site today and it is great! I am from NJ but have been away these past two years since I graduated from college. I always feel like I instantly bond with people when I hear that they are living in NJ haha.
Whitney – Oh yay!! I LOVE New Jersey! Hoboken is seriously the best. Sometimes I walk around and can’t believe I live in such a pretty place!
Wow, what a great blog!
I’ll be back for more!
What do you do at Health Magazine?!?
Hi Hillary – I’m in marketing for Health 🙂
Hey! Just stopped by and wanted to say that your blog is awesome! I will definitely be a frequent visitor in the future.
PS. I can’t imagine what it would be like to work at Health. (dream job of mine) That must be so exciting for someone as health conscious as you are 🙂
Thanks! I’m so glad you like it 🙂 And yes, working at Health really is awesome for someone like me…no complaints here whatsoever! Haha
Cait, I am very happy to have found your blog. I love writing and would love some advice. Perhaps advice on freelance and magazine writing, etc. I may continue to follow your blog 🙂
I’m so glad you like it! Thanks so much for reading 🙂
Nice blog…I definitely am adding you into my rotation!! 🙂
Aw, thanks Kelly!! Glad you like and I can’t wait to check out yours!
Love your blog Cait! You’re making me miss home. I’m from NJ and have friends and fam who live in Hoboken. How awesome you work for Health. Can’t wait to read more 🙂
Oh yay!! I’m so glad. I’ll try to take lots of NJ pictures for you and post them! Haha.
Wow super jealous of your fun job! And I have a lot of friends who live in Hoboken. Go Giants!
Oh yay! Hoboken is the absolute best. If you ever need restaurant recs let me know! I have a million! Haha
You have a great blog Cait! I just came across it this week and have been an avid reader. I’ve bookmarked it and will be stopping by regularly.
You have a great attitude to food and life!
Chloe
Thanks Chloe! I’m so glad you like it and thank you so much for reading!
Hi Cait, love the site! I’m looking forward to reading more! Your job at Health sounds really awesome. 🙂 Are you looking into becoming an RD or DTR?
Cait,
Got your blog info from my brother (Greg E.) – it’s awesome, and I love your take on things. I’ve been working as a health & fitness specialist with my company (started our health & wellness programs about 6 years ago), training clients and coaching them to a healthier lifestyle, and it’s refreshing to see a handful of others (on your blog) that just seem to “get it”. I couldn’t agree more, life isn’t about “diets”…the word itself is short-term in nature…it’s about putting the best fuel in your system, consistently, if you want the best performance from your “machine”. And if you put some low-octane in once and again…no big deal, sometimes it just tastes good…but if it’s always…your “machine” will fail. So happy you’ve joined our Wellness Challenge on team “Greg E”. Looking forward to reading your blog.
Eric – Oh yay! I’m so glad you like it!! And thanks for stopping by! 🙂 I’m definitely excited to partake in the Wellness Challenge! Greg has always filled me in on what you guys do and I’m always so jealous. Seems like such an awesome job!
