I dedicate this book to all my students, past, present, and future, as well as all my friends, family, and especially Mr. Michael Gianoutsos.

After graduation from cooking school, I was very lucky to land a job as pastry chef at the Trumbull Country Club in Warren, Ohio. There I met my culinary father and mentor, Mr. Michael Gianoutsos. Under his guidance, my culinary education actually began. He taught me values, work ethic, and pride in jobs well done. He took me in as part of his family and taught me to believe in myself. His knowledge of food service and business is astounding. Michael always pushed me to the limits of creativity and allowed me to experiment. I shall always be thankful to him for sharing his knowledge and spirit with me.

This cookbook has been in the works for about forty years. I have cooked in restaurants, country clubs, schools, nursing homes, and commercial retail locations, as well as catering and teaching environments. I have traveled and cooked all over the United States and Europe. My last job was as cooking and baking instructor at Lenoir Community College in Kinston, North Carolina, where I had been teaching for about eleven years. I am a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York, and the University of the State of New York, now known as Excelsior College. I have received the titles of Certified Executive Chef (CEC), Certified Executive Pastry Chef (CEPC), and Certified Culinary Educator (CCE) from the American Culinary Federation.

My love of cooking started when I was approximately nine years old. My father made friends with a pastry chef at the hotel where he was working. One day the chef came to visit, and he made a special birthday cake for my mothera mocha torte. He allowed me to be his assistant, and I fell in love with cooking and baking. My grandmother was an amazing cook as well; she loved to make fancy dinners, and she encouraged art as well as cooking throughout my childhood.

I hope this book can inspire young or young-at-heart persons to try their hands at cooking and to share their knowledge and enthusiasm with family and friends. In my family, affection was shown with food, so through this book I wish to share my affection for you.

This book was written with the idea that the quantity of the recipe can be changed according to the needs of the cook. That is why all the recipes have precalculated ingredients for the different quantities required. I have done this because many of my students and friends wanted recipes they could use for parties, social events, weddings, caterings, or simply dinners at home or with a small group of friends. I hope this makes it easier and more fun for them.
