Who is your culinary inspiration?My family. My mother is one of the best cooks I know and she taught me how to make delicious food and make it fun. Family and food go hand in hand. My family is my biggest inspiration by far!
What would you do with the $25,000?I think I would get a bbq rig. Not to big but big enough to take care of a crowd.
