I’ve always had a passion for cooking. After college, I was accepted to culinary school…but to be 100% sure that’s what I wanted to do, I got a job cooking in a restaurant in Athens, GA.  After years of hostessing and waiting tables, I earned a new respect for restaurant chefs…and decided I didn’t want to be one. I love to cook for my family and friends, while listening to music, chatting and enjoying a glass of wine. Not crazy about servers yelling at me because I screwed up table 52′s order. So, I abandoned culinary school, got a job in the “real world” and spend my evenings and weekends cooking up a storm. With a a glass of wine in one hand and a ladle in the other ;0)
