Homemade biscuits and gravy with a veggie omelette

Who is your culinary inspiration?

My mother…She lived in the south all her life, married my father, and embraced being a military wife. She loved the dishes from her childhood but also taught me to appreciate and try foods from all over the world!

What would you do with the $25,000?

I have been the primary caretaker for multiple loved ones. To say it can be tough is an understatement ! I would spend this money on publishing my caretaker resource and start a non-profit to provide resources for this important work!
