This blog is for people who need to find out the basics of cooking, organization in the kitchen, meaning’s of technical words used in recipes,etc. I have spent over 30 years in the food service business. I started out my carreer, quite frankly, in business but found myself accidentally in the food business service. I ended up staying because I found a passion for it.

I started waitressing, bartending, supervising & went on up the ladder. My last assignment was at a local University where I was the catering coordinator. That meant I planned, catered, ordered, for every event for all student programs and staff events. I can cook for a group of ten & turn around the next day, plan, cook, and portin amounts of food for a banquet of 50-100 people. I’ve cooked with some of the best chef’s around & can pleasantly say I was always promoted and earned their respect!

I’ve worked those 14 hour days planning, cooking, organizing, preparing the staff, ordering the food & loving the crazy life.I want to be the helper in the background, now. I want to be able to answer your questions, whether it be from someone who wants to know about basting, to the person who wants to find a romantic meal to cook for two.

I will help you organize the kitchen, so you can have the best use out of it. I want to help the person who is totally intimidated by just walking into the room. Yes, I’m speaking to you. Some people either have it in them to cook, or, they don’t. My daughter in her early teens, thought that by opening the refrigerator door, instant meals would magically appear. I waited until she was in her early 20′s and asked me for help, before I helped her. You see, you need to ask for help. Buying KFC twice a week, besides being unhealty, fattening & etc., can only go so far. You need to know so you can bring healthy food to your family and to yourself. You’re no good to your family if you have a heart attack from the salt intake of fast food.

It’s time to make a change. Control the most important factor of your life, your family and you. I will help you every step of the way. I will guide you through the healthy way of cooking and preparing. I will also lend any information you need to have,give you recipes that will be easy and, most definately, affordable. I can take you by the hand grocery shopping. I will show you how you can grocery shop for the week, cook everything in one day, so all you have left to do for the week is heating the dishes up. I will explain measurements, portions per person, how many dishes to have at a party and even how to set it up. I am your new, good, trusting friend that will support you all the way!
