A Mother's Ability To Provide For Her

When I Was Growing Up In Mississippi - It Was Good Southern Food... But I Also Grew Up With A Greek Family; When Other Kids Were Eating Fried Okra, We Were Eating Steamed Artichokes. So I Think It Played A Big Part In My Healthy Cooking.

I Am Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro In Africa This Summer As A Personal Physical Goal For Myself, But Also As A Way To Bring On Sponsors And Raise Awareness And Funds To Help Benefit The Programs And Initiatives Of Chefs For Humanity.

If Eating Out, Order Your Meal And Ask The Server To Wrap Up Half Of The Portion To Take Home With Your For The Next Day, Keeping Your Portion Size In Check, And Stretching Your Dollar Into Two Meals.

To Me, Money Is The Ability To Create Lifelong Experiences For My Family And Myself, To Educate My Children And A Way To Give Back To Humanity.

When I'm Home, The Heart And Soul Of Our Family Is In The Kitchen. Growing Up, My Parents Both Worked, So Dinnertime Was For Family - The Tv Was Off. I Think It's Important To Grab That Time And Really Make It Special, Even After A Tough Day.
