Receive Text UpdatesI love really good food. I also find it a challenge to tweak any recipe I try. It's fun.
What's your all time favorite dish to make?I love comfort food. Spaghetti and enchiladas are my favorite dishes to make. I learned everything I know from watching my family cook as I grew up
What would you do with the $25,000?I would give to my sister so she could run a food truck. I am disabled so I really can't run a restaurant or food truck by myself. She has made a living working as a cook. She deserves it and more.
