Food is obviously a constant in life: it is necessary for survival, but it can be so much more than that. I enjoy eating food, but mostly I love making food. Whether it is savory or sweet or spicy, I take great pride in the process and the finished product. 

Most of the time, I leave my contributions to baked goods, but I find so much joy in creating a home cooked meal. Nothing puts a smile on someone's face more than a good plate of food.
