Meet the Three Women

Food makes me happy. I come by that naturally, and I have the two women in this photo to thank for that. (By the way, what do you think about my '90s perm? Radical, right?)

 

I grew up in a household with my parents and grandparents, and although I didn’t appreciate it at the time, this really was an extraordinary experience for a child. In truth, my affinity for food and hospitality comes 100 percent from my mom, Katie, and grandma, Dorothy (on my left.) I called Grandma "Bubba." Sadly, I no longer have either of them with me.
 

In this space, I want to share some of my family's wisdom and recipes, as well as introduce you to inspiring home cooks. The Three Women in the Kitchen cookbook shares stories about my family and our best recipes. I've also written books about Missouri's chocolate makers, the history of St. Louis coffee, and a brief food history of Missouri.

​

In addition, I recently signed on to be an independent consultant for Tastefully Simple. If you'd be interested in an online or in-person party, let me know! 

​

Meanwhile, let's dish about food and family memories.
