Receive Text UpdatesMy signature dish is probably cinnamon rolls, but any pasta dish would be a close second. I'm in my comfort food era.
Who is your culinary inspiration?I've always appreciated the tips and tricks given by the late, Chef Anne Burrell. (Brown food tastes GOOOOD ❤️)
What would you do with the $25,000?My husband and I are major foodies and we enjoy experiencing other countries and cultures, so we would probably do a European food tour (and then apply the rest to our youngest daughters college fund🙃).
