Okay, just for the record, this probably isn’t a dish you want to make for Valentine’s Day… for obvious reasons. I have been eating french onion dip for as long as I can remember. I have bought it, and I have made it with those soup packets, you know the ones, but until a friend […]

When I was 11 years old, my role in the kitchen changed. I was promoted from dish washer to sous-chef. It was a great day really…I still held the title of head dish washer though, lucky me… oh the pains of being an only child until I was 15. ( yeah, fifteen) I remember daddy […]
