Anybody who already knows me, knows that I love to cook. I make just about anything I can from scratch and prefer to use only fresh ingredients. Rachel Ray and Sandra Lee are my mortal enemies. They stand for all that is evil in the food world. My favorite chefs are of course, the one and only, Julia Childs, Anthony Bourdain, Jamie Oliver, Gordan Ramsey, Lidia Bastianich and Mario Batali. There was a time in my life I almost entered a culinary school. I was planning on attending CHIC. Before I officially registered, the advisor recommended me to read Kitchen Confidential from Anthony Bourdain then think long and hard if this is the path I want to take. Well I admit it, I’m a wimp in that sense. I just don’t have the gumption to work long, hard hours for little pay. I’d rather just feed my family and friends without the hassle. So even though I will never be a professional chef, I remain committed to making the best food possible with the best ingredients I can get. And that’s where this blog comes in. I’d like to share with you all my thoughts of food, recipes I’ve made and any tips I may come across. Please feel free to share your comments with me.
