Who is your culinary inspiration?I’ve always loved to cook & would watch my grandma & my mom cook & bake. I lost my mom to breast cancer 2 years ago & it was always my mom that inspired me to do what I love. She always raved about my cooking & really enjoyed the sweet treats I would bake for her. I’m doing this for my mom.
