about me

I am a happily married to a husband who loves to eat. We have been together for 22 years and were best friends for 7 years prior. We have a beautiful 24 year old daughter who is living with us temporarily. I am a retail consultant who travels all over the U.S. and I love my job.

My favorite cookbook is Patti Labelle's Recipes to sing about. It is filled with great comfort food (no diet anything in this book).

I love both to cook and bake, November and December are the best times in my kitchen. I was raised in a household with 4 generations, so it was customary for the women to spend endless hours cooking and baking. My great grandmother taught me how to bake using a wood burning stove. That is how we made all of our meals until I was about 14 years old.

I am truly blessed with a wonderful family both here and beyond.

Favorite Foods:

My favorite dish to cook is Bolla's Peanut Stew as most people are surprised how much they like it given the ingredients. It is the meal I am most asked to prepare.

My favorite chain restaurant is Maggiano's. I love the Rigatoni D !!! My favorite local restaurant is the Thai Place II in Fox Chapel (near Pittsburgh).
