Introduction	I am 48 year old mother of three and grand mother to a beautiful baby boy. I have been married to a wonderful man, Michael for 13 years. I am Puerto Rican and very proud of it! I have Celiac Disease and so do my children (Ages 25 to 11). I think I have had it all of my life, but I was only diagnosed 5 years ago. My main goal as a mom and as a cook is to look at all of the benefits of eating gluten free and in empowering myself, my children and others to be able to create sumptuous meals and exquisite desserts that are virtually undetectable to the gluten eating world. My beloved mother was my greatest teacher and inspiration for all of my culinary endeavors. My passions in life are cooking, gardening, working with children, and teaching. I love to share my recipes and techniques. So I decided to take at least a few of my passions and put them all together into a new business. I am currently teaching gluten-free baking and cooking classes at Whole Foods Market and Gluten Free Specialty in Sacramento, California several times per month. I am also in the midst of starting a small gluten-free cooking/baking business “¡Buen Provecho! Enjoy Your Food!” in the clients’ home.

You moved the pot before the coffee stopped brewing. Do you smell the mountains or the burro?

I smell the mountains.
