Gift for Buying My Book!
I wasnt always a trained chef. Before I went to culinary school, my skills in the kitchen were pretty unreliable, and my Sweet 16 birthday cake was the epitome of my amateur baking career at my uncles bakery. Since I insisted on baking it without any help, you can imagine what it turned out like I eye-balled all the measurements, made up amounts for things like baking powder and salt, and even decided to throw more butter in just because I thought it would make it better. Unfortunately, my unlimited passion wasnt very fruitful in the end. It was delicious, though, in its way.
Regardless of the kind of home cook you are, Im sure the free ebooks I will send out will excite you equally! Theyre full of recipes that have been developed and tested by pro cooks so that you never end up with less than perfect versions of delicious treats like my birthday cake. All you need to do is subscribe to my mailing list to get the ebooks sent to you right away, and you can start cooking. Good luck!
