Intimate Epicurean Experiences
To help kick off National Celiac Disease Awareness Month, I’ll be going on Fox19’s morning show tomorrow morning to share one of my favorite recipes for a gluten-free apple pie cheesecake. Tune in to hear how I adapt my cooking to a gluten-free pie crust and still keep it gourmet. Here’s the recipe: Crust: 1 […]
So it is Easter weekend and I figured I would share a funny Easter Day story from the old childhood. To tell you this story, I have to preface it with telling you that my Dad was a huge practical jokester and the funniest person I have ever known. He was the kind of guy […]
What a wonderful time my staff and I had the Waton’s Springtime Celebration. What a beautiful showroom of wonderful grills and indoor and outdoor furniture.

While it’s true that I’ve called Thanksgiving the “Super Bowl for Chefs,” it simply wouldn’t be fair to leave out a tribute to the actual Super Bowl. This wings-beer-nachos-dip fest is one of the most anticipated events of the year for millions of people, but I see the same recipes and party suggestions over and […]
Every great creator has tools that he or she loves. Artists have their brushes, stylists have their scissors, and chefs—well, we have our knives.
