The kitchen is the start of a lot of wonderful opportunities.

Not just sustenance and nutrition but also warmth.

Ive learned that its a place to gather and place that everyone can relate to.

Its in the little details and simplicity of company that friends and family find joy.

Combining that with a little bit of know-how goes a long way.

You keep them on ice and look very realistic.

The best part, they are not only delicious but also incredibly easy to make.

Theyre not easily forgotten, especially with the yummy dip that goes along with them.

How have you developed these skills?

Is it important for you to share them with readers?All my skills are self-taught.

Because I havent been formally trained I am constantly learning and experimenting.

I think thats one of the most important skills in the kitchen, evolving.

The more you cook the more you know and the more you start to love it.

Who is this book for, in your mind?The book is for people like me.
