Finally!

So here it goes...

I am a sun-kissed Texan girl that has been exploring L.A. going on 4 years now.  I come from a small town where my first experience with gourmet food was in my best friend's kitchen which included: roasted duck, fresh baby herbed salad, mushroom risotto, and strawberries marinated in vodka with homemade vanilla bean ice cream.  As I sat on the bar stool sipping my wine, I was blown away by his attention to details and his delicate touch every step of the way.  Caressing of the fragile strawberries, gentle shaving of the vanilla bean, and eagerly squeezing of the lemon.  By the end of the night, I felt consumed in both mind and body.   This ignited my passion for not only exquisite food but also for the bodily gratifying experience.

And so here I am to share not only my personal cooking experiments but also the epicurean encounters that often inspire my creative endeavors in this eclectic city called L.A.
