What is your signature dish?

My daughter would say my chicken noodle soup or meatloaf, my friends would say any kind of summer salad! I have many favorites, depends on what kind of cuisine I'm craving!

Who is your culinary inspiration?

My mother is my kitchen Hero! We grew up pretty poor, but she could make everything taste good! She taught me how to preserve garden produce and make things from scratch.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I have many ideas but I need to get some money together to get stable so I can execute on them.
