A Chef for You

I LOVE to cook and I LOVE to eat. I try everything twice and I love to make good food for good people. It makes me happy to see someone enjoy what I created for them.

My favorite Celebrity chefs are: Giada de Laurentiis — I have a picture of her and I on my website. She is such a sincere and sweet person.

Alton Brown — you gotta love the multi-tasking tools and science he shares with us. I sure do.

Gordon Ramsey — To some he may come across stubborn and mean but I don't agree. He is so giving and truly tries to help others succeed.

They all make excellent food that has character and depth without using too many different ingredients. This leaves their dishes featuring the main ingredient, not masking it.

I aspire to cook and be like them.

My love of food drove me to open my own Personal Chef Service. I provide meals to clients who don't have time or just can't cook for themselves. I interview each client to determine food preferences, allergies, and medicine/food interactions. With this information I do all of their menu planning. Upon approval of the menu we pick a day for the service. On that day I arrive with all of the groceries, my equipment, and packaging materials. I then prepare two weeks of meals for the client. I leave the prepared food in the fridge/freezer, I leave the reheating directions on the table, and then I clean the kitchen so that it looked like I was never even there.

My business has allowed me to meet many great people who truly appreciate the hard work it took for me to provide them the food they required to stay or get healthy.

Take your time and enjoy what you eat. I challenge you to do this during your next homemade meal. On your first bite of each different item on your plate make a conscious effort to notice how each of your five senses are stimulated.
