Eating good food is very important to me.
I think for me cooking comes naturally, as with all the women in my family. I started with baking when I was a teenager. It was an outlet for me to escape the angst I was having, it was therapeutic. I have always been very creative with writing, art, fashion, etc., this was the first time I was realizing that baking, specifically cake decorating could be creative too. When I started college at an interior design school, I was baking so much, that everyone was pushing me to go to culinary school instead. So I left after one semester to pursue my passion. I went to culinary school in a pastry chef program. After taking a required basic food prep course, I realized that I also love to cook.
Although I am not working as a chef right now, I am still a chef through and through. I love to plan menus, peruse cookbooks, and most of all slave in the kitchen. I have been blessed with the best supportive husband. And, I am a stay at home mom of 2 amazing boys, 10 months, and 2 1/2 yrs. With all that said my passion is to entertain family and friends. I will cook these huge meals, with several courses.
Before I had children I would spend days in the kitchen preparing these fabulous meals. Now I don't have the time, so I try cook simple and delicious food. I always try to buy organic produce and use the best quality ingredients.
I love everything about food and cooking (except the cleaning up part), even walking aimlessly around grocery stores is entertaining for me.
I also enjoy eating at restaurants. From dump to upscale, I am always drawing inspirations for my cooking when I dine out.
