Who or what inspires you to cook?

Usually my own cravings inspire my cooking. Many celebrity chefs have influenced me over the years of religiously watching Food Network. And my mom!

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

Probably chili.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would put it towards a business as being an entrepreneur has always fulfilled me more than anything! (And take my kids on our first vacation!)
