Who is your culinary inspiration?I love watching Jamie Oliver. He makes cooking seem effortless and his charisma is contagious!
What would you do with the $25,000?I have always wanted to attend culinary school, but working a corporate job has kept me from pursuing that. I am eligible to retire in approximately 4 years and will be able to chase my dream!
