About
I use only the highest quality, all natural ingredients to create fresh, nutritious meals. I add a personal touch to all of your meals, catered event or cooking class party. My personality shows in my food, it's bright, creative, and exciting.
I love that I can cook all day and use my creativity to make others happy. My unique ability to put together meals that everyone in the family enjoys (even the little picky eaters) is quite statisfying.

Barbara visited the home of our friends to prepare a wonderful meal as our Christmas gift to them. Barbara was great! She took the time to learn about our friends, confirm their likes/dislikes, food allergies, etc., and welcomed my feedback on the menu. Our friends had nothing but positive (actually glowing) comments about the experience and rate this as one of the best gifts they've ever received.
We are so happy with Barbara that we've already booked another engagement for relatives.

One word . . . Fantastic! Barbara was wonderful. Menu planning was fun and easy. She is a great person and we enjoyed her company as much as the dinner she cooked for our party of 10 New Year's Eve. We will definitely use her again.

We had a double birthday for adults. Barbara was well organized before, during and after the party, easing my pre-party nerves. Everyone raved about the food - the variety, the quality and no one went away hungry.

Barbara did a fantastic job! She made a dish for my husband, sauerbraten wish he has not had since his mothers passing. She was very personable and the dish with the sides were delicious! I would highly recommend her for any function, her prices are very reasonable and didn't have to do a thing! Can't wait till the next time!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing system is very easy to understand.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a Certified Personal Fitness Chef, which gives me access to all the lastest health trends in food. In addition, I have subscribtions to many culinary magazines, I like hard copies, because I like to feel, read, & see the lastest recipes. I am going to be trained in September to begin to more effectively teach clients how to eat balanced without the crazy diets. I continue to read, go to restaurants, and network with like minded chefs.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I cooked with my grandfather as a girl, I loved his creativity. He never shyed away from trying new things, trial and error, always coming up with great dishes. I have always been in food service. I started making pizzas at 15, and continued to evolve my passion for cooking as I got older.
