I completed a work/study program at the Institute of Culinary Education in NYC. It took a little over a year to complete the 1600 hours of required work but I learned a lot along the way and now I don’t have to write a check to the school for $24,000. It feels really great and classes have been amazing so far. Yesterday we had our first day of real cooking (up until now it’s been mostly knife skills and tastings) and my team did a fantastic job!

So in an attempt to get a cookbook deal…I have started writing food articles. I have had 2 published already on lostwriters.net. Here is a link to my latest recipe for Tom Yum Soup! http://www.lostwriters.net/archive_popup.php?c=czozOiIyNTIiOw==
I would love to have some feedback!

I’ve been brushing up on my writing skills by submitting stuff to lostwriters.net. I’ve already had 2 articles published and another should come out in about 2 weeks. Check out the site. There is great stuff on there and you can try to submit something, too!
