About Me:: I laugh freely, flirt unashamedly, and usually prefer tea. I have an overactive and slightly wicked imagination. I'm a food writer, a magazine editor, and a non-practicing culinary school grad. I'm kind of a nerd. I love puzzles. I have a serious Fuddruckers obsession and a Jersey accent that gets stronger with each drink. I think red wine tastes sexy and tequila like trouble. I confess that I only know about 44 state capitals and seem to forget another one each year. I can, however, discuss the complexities of Joyce while roasting a killer fall-off-the-bone chicken.

Is your mouth watering yet? Here's the scoop. As you may not know, I love to read. I have an entire room in my apartment dedicated to my books ("the library"). How many New Yorkers do…

Grand Opening!

After weeks of planning, I've finally got my Etsy shop ready and open for business! I've been planning on doing this for a while now, but wanted to make sure I had all the logistics in place. I've perfected my recipes and quantities, figured out my prices, and even ordered cute labels (from another awesome Etsy seller, of course!). I'm starting small with only a few items to test it out, but I'm really excited. Can't wait until I make my first sale! If anyone wants to stop by my site to check it…

And those who have the patience for it--I enjoy making wonderful things to eat, but get frustrated that they are gone so quickly, after soooo much hard work! My hat is off to you-feeding people is such a wonderful, important, sacred way to create and nurture family and community. You are a goddess! I look forward to our Etsy friendship and if there's anything I can do to help you along, let me know! Peace and hugs!
