ABOUT THIS COOK:

Ultimately my goal as a devoted home cook is to make sure my daughters understand where their food comes from and how to prepare our many farmers market treasures. And I am proud to say that at their ripe ages of 4 & 6 years, my daughters can successfully shuck beans and corn, peel cucumbers, stir giant soup pots, crack eggs, roll out dough, pour in the ingredients, add in chocolate chips, and lick the spoons!
