Good Advice from a Chef


  Pursue your passion; 
spread love and joy; 
be kind and forgiving;
 be generous; 
enjoy every morsel—from humble street food to decadent fine dining; 
cook for the people you love. 
 Travel the world and seek out adventure.  
 Help others and don’t be afraid to the take the road less taken.

       Live your life to the fullest.

Magic at Our Fingertips


A blank page becomes

Swirls and curves, lines and slants.

More than words.

A spark between friends who've never met.

Everyday magic.



Thank you, Mary Oliver, for your one wild and precious life.
