About me

Introduction	I live in Ventura County with my husband, whom I lovingly refer to as "MacGyver", since I have yet to discover anything that he cannot do, repair or build from scratch... amazing! We have two beautiful dogs; Uno - a yellow lab and Bailey - a yellow lab/shepard mix that is the most handsome mutt you'll ever meet. When I am not working in my full-time job in advertising, I enthusiastically pursue my true love of cooking, entertaining, and enjoying food and wine in general. Growing up, I spent a significant amount of time with my Italian grandmother. She was an amazing cook, and gracious hostess. She always let me "help" in the kitchen, and fostered my passion for cooking and entertaining. I started this blog to journal about my adventures in life, food, wine and entertaining - particularly in the "805" - the place I call home.
