a writer who loves food.

Growing up, I learned quickly the value of a home cooked meal prepared with and for the people you love. I've always been in the kitchen, it's a place I associate with my childhood and my roots. 

​

As an adult, I've worked in a bakery and a kitchen, preparing both savory and sweet products for eager customers. My husband and I worked together on Papa G's Cookies, a resurrection of my grandfather's cookie recipes from the family bakery. 

​

My educational background relies heavily on my love of words and language -- a testament to my childhood dream of becoming a published  creative writer.​

​

Naturally, my love of food and my love of words fused and Edible Ink was born. 

​

Here I hope to weave the history, tradition and passion associated with food into creative narrative for all to enjoy. I hope to convey the stories we tell through and around food. 

​

Much gratitude to my family, my parents, for encouraging me to follow my dreams and for constantly, incessantly, relentlessly feeding me the tastiest food they could find.

​

Love & Blessings,

​
