Who or what inspires you to cook?

Carla lol. Cannabis hehe. Don't tell Willy Just making people happy I love filling people's bellies with warm food that I made it's like coming into my home and me offering something that I can give to you.

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

I'm from South California so I do love Mexican food.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Honestly I just came under the weather with a bunch of medical bills and I lost my job so all of my bills are due I'm barely surviving and I also lost my truck so now I have to get a new vehicle and I have to pay all my behind bills so honestly this money is just going to bills sadly.
