My first cake!
Espresso Chocolate Chip. It was decent, but I made rookie mistakes. Sponge a bit overbaked. Buttercream frosting texture a bit off; butter wasnโ€™t quite at room temp. It was still delicious. Recipe

Culinary Art

I am an artist. Food happens to be my latest medium. I make art we get to eat! Like so many others, Iโ€™ve had a long struggle with food. Is it simply fuel, or an emotional crutch, a comforting friend, a gluttonous indulgence, a way to be with friends and family, an opportunity for creativity, a damaging addiction? YES to ALL. Iโ€™ve always been overweight, at times obese, all of my life. Itโ€™s a family trait. One we joke about and cry about, but at least we talk about it and try to help one another on our journeys. Three out of five of us have had gastric sleeve surgery. At a whopping 284 pounds, I decided to have the surgery when I had to ask for a seatbelt extension on an airplane. Diets had never worked, exercise was never enough; my metabolism was stubborn and set. I lost 90 pounds and kept it off for three years. Two years before the surgery I started getting serious about cooking at home. Now I cook every day, and Iโ€™m learning more about food, nutrition, tastes and portions. Since Iโ€™m an artist and teacher, I have a need to share my beautiful and delicious food with family and friends. I am obsessed, and itโ€™s time to make this my full time gig. I want others to experience the health, joy, creativity and deliciousness of great food. I try very hard to adhere to the words of one of my greatest influences in the cooking world, Michael Pollan, who says โ€œEat food. Mostly plants. Not too muchโ€ (Food Rules). Let me feed you. Bon appetit!
