cooking, gardening, reading, travel, speaking French, home improvement, and going to spas as often as I can!
i'd love it if you'd tune in!

* Buckwheat Zydeco ...and more... but I just can't bear to listen to country&western, opera, freeform jazz and most classical music.
Movies
I'm not much of a film person... even though I've got 60+ DVDs in my netflix queue, most of them are science shows and documentaries.
Television
don't have a tv.
Books
Kellerman, Koontz, Cook, King... anything that's got a medical mystery twist, or a horror theme, I just can't put down. Oh, and do cookbooks count?
Heroes
My husband Kelly, for helping me to see the best in people, including myself.
JoAnna I know I said I was homesick the other day, but I'm really happy that Kelly & I chose Pulaski, TN as our new home. Posted at 11:19 PM Dec 5, 2008 view more
About me:
I'm a chef, working for private clients doing formal, seated dinners and cooking lessons.
I have a wonderful husband, two adorable pit-bulls, and a little vegetable garden that gets a lot of attention.
I love to cook, and I enjoy experimenting with all kinds of products. It's fun to go into a market and find things I haven't heard of before, or to try recipes that sound like they'd be interesting.
Who I'd like to meet:
Tyler Florence, for the hottie chef factor
Emeril Lagasse because he's one of the most passionate chef's I've ever seen
Gale Gand because she became a chef as her second career, and made herself a success
...but those are just the chefs -- there are so many more inspiring people I'd like to meet!
