A Tale Of Two Passions



I grew up with a strong passion for cooking and I wanted to become a chef since I was about eight years old. Then I saw the television show Essence of Emeril and I realized that was what I seriously wanted to do with my life. As the years went on I would cook for hundreds to thousands of people (per day) serving a variety of different demographics everyone from church folks to everyday folks to CEO’s of successful companies. All of that hard work has paid off because I am currently a Sous Chef.

As I have gotten older I have rediscovered a passion that I had before I discovered my love for cooking; writing. I suppressed that passion because I loved to cook and I did not think that I would do anything else. Now I am somewhat at a crossroad because I love to cook yet I am being tugged into another direction with writing. My husband gave me some great advice which was to simply write. He understands my passion for writing and he has seen me write over the years but I have never been consistent. Another great thing that he mentioned was to write about food which I think is a fantastic idea; merging two of my passions together.

So I am challenging myself to juggle both because they both fulfill me. So I am going to see where this voyage takes me. I’m excited! 

P.S. Hey #FoodNetwork if you want me to watch a few cooking shows, test out some recipes, and then write some reviews I'm totally available 😉
