I'm A Home Cook And Love To

I Had A Little Epiphany When I Was A Writer At 'chicago' Magazine. I Sat Down To Dinner At The Ritz-carlton. Somebody Poured A White Dessert Wine With Chocolate Cake. It Was A Wine I Would Never Have Expected To Make Sense. The Idea Of Any Wine Tasting Fabulous With Chocolate Cake Was Fascinating To Me.

I'm A Home Cook And Love To Read About Food, But I'm Not Trained As A Chef. I'm Just Really Into Cooking And Passionate About It.

To Me, The Kitchen Is A Place Of Adventure And Entirely Fun, Not Drudgery. I Can't Think Of Anything Better To Do With Family And Friends Than To Be Together To Create Something.

Planning A Dinner Party In A Way That You're Actually Capable Of Getting It Done Without Panicking Is Important. It's Bad Hospitality For The Host To Be Freaked Out.

Cooking For People Is An Enormously Significant Expression Of Generosity And Soulfulness.
