I'm also the gal you turn to when you need a recipe for your picky mother-in-law's Holiday party, quick weekenight one pot meal, or elegant dessert for your sweetheart that anyone can make.
Better yet, if take them to dinner. I have just the place if you're in the Northern Illinois area. Because I love to travel and explore, I can even help you find things to do in my favorite cities like New Orleans, Los Angeles, or Vegas.
I’m also a writer and actor with experience on both stage and screen. I love to make people laugh by poking fun at the things that happen as you age beyond your 40s.
