"The recipes compiled in this cookbook are recipes that I have saved and cherished for many years. When I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2003 my life as I knew it was changed forever. I would never be the woman I was just a day ago.
Through the many surgeries, chemotherapy drugs and trying to put my life back together, I realized I was a changed woman. What I thought was important was no longer as important. I had to ask myself, what difference have I made in my life, and realized I still had time to make a difference.
It came to me one day that I should write a cookbook. With my love for cooking, entertaining and enjoying the company of friends and family why not share my recipes for everyone to enjoy. The parties and meals have brought back so many fond memories. Like any other good cook, I have recipes written on napkins, worn pieces of paper and some just in my head.
When I realized that my life could be short, I needed to leave my treasured recipes in an organized manner for my children to enjoy. As grown adults, they recall that special meal prepared just for them. Birthday’s have come and gone, but the memory of the meal stayed in their heads.
It is now my turn to make sure the memory lingers and I decided to organize my recipes. It has taken me a year to finish the cookbook. Every recipe brings back a memory or a time in my life that was without uncertainty.
A portion of the sale of my cookbook will be donated to the Susan G. Koman for the cure Breast Cancer organization. My goal is to give back to help fund research to prevent breast cancer.
My wish for you is find a recipe and create the same fond memory that will be treasured forever.
Bon Appetit´ "
