Those who know me know that I love to cook. When I was a child I used to dream of being a Chef and creating some the greatest meals that anyone has ever tasted. Well needless to say a driving force in my life overpowered my need to cook with a need to serve my country.
Well I may not be a Michelin star Chef but my passion for cooking has never wavered.
