About Me

Where do I start... Well, I live in Austin with my amazing husband, Mike. I have a cute little, 100lb. dog who has the biggest personality. His name is Tux. My life revolves around food in every sense of the word. I read about food (currently reading Thomas Keller's book from French Laundry). I write about food and I cook food. I am a chef. I am so fortunate to have such amazing and supportive friends and family. Without them, I wouldn't be where I am or who I am...
