Blog Description

~ A delicious journey of food related gatherings, events & personal recipes ~

I was pretty much born & raised in the kitchen, thanks to my parents who were caterers. They've sinced retired, but through them I picked up a passion for food and cooking. As a result of helping them out in the kitchen throughout childhood and adolescence, cooking became second nature. When I was in high school, I would hold dinner parties with friends every month. It was at that point I coupled my love of cooking and entertaining - which I love to do to this day.

To share my passion, I organize several cooking clubs around the country and even in Canada! All my clubs are modeled after the one I started, What's Cookin Chicago. In my blog you'll find all the food related events I host for my club - which is pretty much every weekend. So hopefully you'll check out my "culinary adventures" and be inspired to entertain, cook, bake and enjoy the company around you.

If you would like to be an assistant organizer for any of my groups, please send me an email! I'd love to have you host an event or two in your area. :)
