Welcome to my addictive, zany and sometimes pathetic, as in ‘rrreeeeeally’, world of food! Foodies are a unique, to say the least, group of humans. Can we categorize foodies? Well, yep, I think in some ways—there are the nutritionists, the gluten-frees, the vegetarians,
the vegans, the grillers, the bakers, the cupcake makers, the Southern belles, the jams and jellies, the hell braisers, the BBQ kings and the canning queens, the ethnics from Italian, Mediterranean, Indian, and Mexican to the Brits, the Slavs, the Middle Easterners—then of course, there are the many pockets of cuisine in the expansive parts of the good ol’ USA—and I’ve just named a few.
During my adventure into the universe of food via Facebook, blogging, my website and being on MasterChef Season 2, I have come in contact with rabid foodies from all walks of life—doctors, lawyers, punk rockers, nurses, mommies, daddies, students, engineers, accountants, brick masons, sanitation workers, soldiers, performers, dancers, actors, teachers, firefighters, the unemployed, the looking for employment, the retired—all share the same DNA, but we have an exclusive extra pair of chromosomes, number 24, which means we were destined for mutation into the world of food. Come visit with me as I unravel this chromosome and the thousands of genes, each of which contains information for a specific trait!

Ya know, I’ve known this guy via the Facebook foodie community for a while now. Not only does he stand out because of his unique twist on food, his stunning food photography, and his creative takes on food, but he’s a male, and he’s broken the glass ceiling in the foodie blogger world because really there aren’t that many men ...

The first thing that drew me to Mia on Facebook was the name of her page~~Mia’s Domain~~not only is the name ‘Mia’ different, I mean I’ve only known one other and that was Mia Farrow (like I knew her!).

When I read Ann’s bio about sitting on the stool in her grandmother’s kitchen, I’m so reminded of my own mother. She speaks about her grandmother’s practicality with living and cooking, the same as my Mom, I can identify with folding and re-using foil, wrapping in wax paper, not throwing out anything, including the rinds of watermelon–those were to be ...

She auditioned this past summer for The Food Network’s Chopped-Mom’s Episode and was terrified during my 30 minute on air camera interview. Why do this when she admittedly says she’s not generally a competitive person, nor am comfortable being in the spotlight! Sometimes you do things for other reasons, and Carrie wanted to prove to herself, and her girls, that if ... Read More »

When I started this interview/post, I only knew this zesty ball of energy virtually…yep, she’s my Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram co-addict foodie friend. We’d talked by phone (you’ll have to read her post to see what that conversation was about!), so I had a voice with the face. But, we’d never met face-to-face until November 1st 2012! And, just how precisely ... Read More »

When God was handing out brains, she got ‘em. When God was handing out, beauty, she got it. When God was handing out culinary talents, she got ‘em. It’d be so easy to be pea green envious of her, but when God was handing out kindness, character, passion and soul, she got ‘em, too! So, you just gotta know that ... Read More »
