Receive Text UpdatesThere are 2 dishes that my grandmother , Nanny is what I called her, Easter pies and roast beef and rigatoni!!! But I do make the best eggplant Parmesan probably in the whole world!!
Who is your culinary inspiration?My Nanny would be my inspiration for cooking ! Watching her every Sunday start cooking before anyone was even awake never knowing how many people were going to come but prepped for an army because usually everyone would come Sunday dinner and breakfast at the same time ! Everything would simmer and prepped and off to church she was an amazing multitasker !! She did it all with so much love and enjoyment But enter that kitchen at your own risk I wish I knew that then ! lol
What would you do with the $25,000?As cliche as it sounds I would take my kids and my kids kids to Disney land or world which ever one is in Florida for Christmas and new years week ! And what ever is left if anything lol I wanna build my own food truck !!
