More About Me
I have been in the food business since 1975. This has been my passion and life’s ambition and have enjoyed every day of it. I am originally from Palmyra, NY, and I attended Wayne County BOCES in High School and Johnson & Wales Culinary School in 1979-80, receiving an A.S. degree in Culinary Arts. I have prepared a lot of meals in my day, getting close to 3 million meals by now (if I was keeping track).
What I love most about the food service business is people–making people happy when they get a good tasting and well presented meal. After that, catering and teaching run neck and neck. Every catering job is different, every event is like working a new job, and it never gets boring. Teaching is an opportunity to share the knowledge I’ve obtained and enlightening someone else, which I truly enjoy.
I have held many jobs over the years as I tried to improve through new challenges, finding what was best for the family and fulfilling my goals.

I Stand With Jesus Christ
It is a privilege to share my testimony and the never ending love of Jesus Christ with you. You may be thinking that, why doesn’t he stick to cooking and sharing his recipes and leave his beliefs to himself. My response is that I am doing what the bible has taught me, sharing the good news. I get my guidance from Christ and trust him to walk with me though out my day My joy and peace of mind come from a daily walk with Christ.
I Believe…
God is the creator of this world
Genesis 1:1
Jesus is the son of God
John 10:30
Jesus was born of a virgin
Matthew 1:18
Jesus died on the cross for every mans sins
John 3:16
He rose again on the three day
Mark 16:6
Jesus is sitting today on the right hand of God
Mark 16:19
Heaven and hell are real
John 14:1-3 & 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9
Jesus is the only way
John 14:6
The Holy Spirit lives in those that except Christ as their savior
Acts 1:5
Why do I believe that it is true? Because the Bible told me so. I believe the Bible is true cover to cover, word by word and is written by chosen men that were led by the Holy Sprit to record God’s word.
I accepted Christ as my savior a June 1973 and have tried my best to be a faithful servant for him with my time and energy, sharing his word and caring for others.
How To Accept Christ as Savior
How do I become a Christian? It’s as easy as your ABC’s:
Admit that you’re a sinner.
Believe that Jesus is God’s Son.
Confess your sins and ask Jesus into your heart.
- We are all sinners. Romans 3:23 says, For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.
- The results of our sin is hell. Romans 6:23 says, For the wages of sin is death.
- So God, because of His love for us, sent Jesus to die on the cross to pay the penalty of our sins. Romans 5:8 says, But God commanded His love towards us, in while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
- To receive Jesus’ sacrifice for our sins we must not only believe in God, but ask Him to save us from our sins (that makes Him SAVIOR) and then rule and reign in and over our lives (that makes Him LORD). Romans 10:9-10 says, That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus Christ and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved.
- God’s gift to us is saving us if we ask Him to. Romans 6:23 says, For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
- When should I be saved? NOW! Right now! You never know when you might die or be killed. And after that, it’s too late to be saved, and you will go to hell forever and ever. Hebrews 3:7 says, Today, if you will hear His voice, do not harden your hearts. Also, II Corinthians 6:2 says, Behold, now IS the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.
- Is there anyone else or any other way to be saved? NO. Since God created us, it stands to reason that only God can save us from our sins. And God has chosen Jesus as the way to do this. Acts 4:12 says, Nor is there salvation found in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.
- Jesus said, Behold I stand at the door (your heart) and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me (Revelation 3:20). In other words, Jesus WILL save you if you let Him into your heart and life.
Will you ask Jesus into your heart today? Just pray this prayer (and truly mean it), and you will be saved:
Dear God, I realize that I’m a sinner and I can’t save myself. I believe you sent your Son Jesus to die on the cross to take the penalty of my sins. I ask Jesus now to come into my life and save my soul, and guide and direct my life from this point on as my Lord. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
