Receive Text UpdatesI am inspired by others: to put a smile on their face, to comfort them, to encourage them to be better and do better. Food provides the platform to help others through everyday life events. Every person on the planet eats. Why not provide a meal so people can enjoy time together? Therefore I am inspired to cook so people can enjoy each other: their time, their talents, their life - with each other. It is a core value -an essential part of who I am.
What's your all time favorite dish to make?Don't laugh! I love cornbread. All kinds , but mainly cast iron skilette. Bougie Cornbread is my current delight. Homemade with sausage, onions, mushrooms, peppers, real butter, butter milk and topped with Amish cheese. I love to eat it cold, hot or toasted served with a fresh side salad and homemade salad dressing. And if the time, homemade butter.
What would you do with the $25,000?I wish I could say something spectacular, but the honest truth I would use it to pay off some of the debt from opening a restaurant. We have 5 star rating on google, but opened in a town with no industry. This first year has been hard. However, more and more people are coming. The 25K would take some pressure off. Exposure would be a positive!
