About Me

My passion for food goes way back to my childhood, and once I discovered Martha Stewart's television show, I was hooked. This is now my third food blog, and always finding something new to cook and write about. I am a dietitian specializing in traditional foods and holistic health, and I also teach classes on traditional foods cooking, including fermentation and organ meat cookery. Great food takes a lot of love and hard work, and I hope to give you both on this blog with some of my favorite recipes!
