About Me

Some people eat to live. I live to eat. No wait - I live to watch other people eat food I've prepared.

I'm a Southern transplant living in NYC, a perfect location for a young, single foodie. Not only am I surrounded by some of the world's most amazing restaurants, but I have access to at least one farmer's market every day of the week. To say I eat well is an understatement.
