Who or what inspires you to cook?

My aunt Pugar she was the house for all the holidays & just any day. She didn’t have a lot of money but she always had a meal for whoever was hungry. I live by may not have money but always have a meal for you.

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

That is definitely a hard question because I love soul food, Italian, Mexican, and Mediterranean. It is a toss up between manicotti and any soul food dish one can think of.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Give back to the community by donating some for meals & supplies for the homeless.
