Hot summer temps are in place to stay a while. I am so glad we installed a drip system for the trees, gardens and landscaping at home. It saves money, is energy friendly, and is timed each night for one hour during the hot summer season. I never worry about my plants anymore which is a big relief. I am busy establishing my new business. I am chef/proprietor of Culinary Dreamin' - which is offically licensed and trademarked. I am writing new menus for catering services, offering cooking classes for couples or small intimate groups. In addition, I took a few writing classes to sharpen my writing skills. I am a food columnist for California Tour and Travel magazine, Cupertino Daily on-line, Sierra Signature on-line, and recently the Union Democrat publication located in Sonora. The sierra foothills bring peace and tranquility in my life, and whenever I feel the need for a quick fix, I drive two hours into the bay area to spoil myself with abundant culinary pleasures and spa pampering. As a chef in sierra foothills communities, I pray you will give me an opportunity to show my talent. I am committed to doing whatever it takes, to make your event spectacular and most memorable.Labels: Summer 2008
