meals using ones senses rather than recipes and measurements was passed on from one generation to
the next. Her father was also a trained chef who brought the magic of food to life in another form on
the weekends as they cooked elaborate family meals together. Food prepared from the heart, with
ones own hands and creativity was, and continues to be an expression of love in her home. As an

savory, or doughy, she enjoys experimenting and creating in the kitchen daily.
