Receive Text UpdatesInspiration comes from within. I love cooking for people. Anyone! Family, people I love, people with whom I work, people who are friends. Whenever I cook for anyone, I cook with my whole heart. I'm told that's what makes my dishes taste so special and delicious.
What's your all time favorite dish to make?My favorite dish to make happens to be my biggest fail. I was preparing Beef Wellington for Christmas. I followed the recipe carefully. It was beautiful -- the perfectly formed scored dough and egg wash. Into the oven at 200 degrees. As my mom & I watched through the glass oven door, nothing happened. After 45 minutes and out of frustration, we checked the recipe. 200° Celsius! I had my oven at 200° Fahrenheit. Thank you, Metric System...Oh, well. (Or should I say oh, rare?)
What would you do with the $25,000?$25,000!!! It would be a dream to take a cooking class in Italy or in France. Or, I could go on a food tour and eat my way through a foriegn culture. It would be spent in a delicious and adventurous way!
