About Me

First and foremost, I,  like many am in love with food. I love the idea that the one thing that connects every one in life together is eating.  From the moment we wake up to the time we go to bed we schedule everything around eating.  I love to entertain. I think it's funny how you can have the biggest, most glamorous house with many rooms and yet everyone always seems to gather in the kitchen. This is truly where stories are told and ideas are shared. I feel my purpose in my life is to give everyone who comes in to my house or restaurant a break. A timeout and distraction from there busy, hectic schedules.


For me there is nothing better and more satisfying then seeing the reaction on some ones face the moment the flavors I've created rush there palate. The reaction is even more fun when I tell them it's healthy.


I eat clean. What I mean by eating clean is all natural, healthy balanced meals. The spin on my recipes is that I feel anything that is traditional can be made healthy with out compromise. The other rule I have is that I really don't have any. I'm like a Miles Davis of cooking. I love to improv. I feel this is when magic can be made and flavors become memorable. You have to feel it in your soul.


My purpose for providing this blog is celebrate eating healthy, flavorful, bold, and natural foods that are easy to make and fun for entertaining or experimenting.  So I thank you for allowing me to share my passion.


Mille Grazie!!
