Ever since I was little my mom, her sisters and my grandmother‘s cooked everything from scratch. I always saw the way it brought the family together to talk to enjoy each other. And I always wanted to pass that on to other people. To not only fill their stomachs with joy, but to fill their spirit with joy from sharing a meal with friends, family, and strangers, who are becoming friends!
What's your all time favorite dish to make?My all-time favorite dish to make has to be homemade chicken soup with handmade, matzoh balls! My grandmother used to make it for me when I was little and sick and taught me the recipe from the time I was four so that I could make it for my friends and family and show them love when they were sick.
What would you do with the $25,000?With $25,000 I would love to help people with disabilities have more friendly kitchen, utensils, and devices made for them to help in the kitchen so they can cook and enjoy cooking more easily. As I have recently become disabled and love to cook, but sometimes find it very difficult, using utensils and gadgets that were not made for me. Therefore, if I can help someone else cook and enjoy it and make them happy I would love to do that!
