Receive Text UpdatesI cook for the look on my friend's and family's faces when they try one of my creations! Whether it's oooh yes! Or what were you thinking! (wait... this is delicious!) Creating good food is my love language and a way to nourish my ohana.
What's your all time favorite dish to make?I love to cook big. I have a June birthday- perfect to smoke it, braise it, grill it, throw a bash. My semi secret personal comfort meal is mussels provincal, crossing, and broccoli rabe. Shhh. I'm eating...

Oh, and throw a huge party! Home cured corned beef and colcannon, anyone?
