Around the Table takes a new approach to cooking lessons - no stuffy rules - just a fun evening to learn something new.  Interesting and tasty food, animated chatter and lots of laughter are standard fare at Around the Table.

You will learn simple, elegant recipes and tips for success in the kitchen.  I will share my favorite recipes and gadgets with you and create meals to remember.  We will then feast on these creations.  And to keep you going, you'll bring home all of the recipes.





Cooking Parties - part cooking class, all fun. Join me in my kitchen and around my table for a cooking party. Spend an evening out, enjoy a fabulous dinner and learn new dishes and menus to share with your family and friends.

Private Cooking Parties - standard sessions not working for you?  Arrange a private cooking party with friends, I'll help you pick the theme and work with you to design a menu to learn new techniques and dishes.

The possibilities are endless - Girls' Night Out or even a Girls' Weekend, an evening of Cooking Couples or Boys Night Out.  

Private Chef Services - too busy to cook but still want to entertain? Let me cook for you. I look forward to delighting you and your guests with a delicious feast and a relaxed, stress-free party.  

Sit down dinner for family and friends? Buffet dinner or cocktails for a crowd? Romantic dinner for two? At my house or yours.

Or try dinner to-go when you have no time to cook. Take a look at my latest menu.

Company Team Building - what do you get when you combine 20 years of corporate experience building sales and marketing teams and a passion for cooking?  A new twist on team building, join me for a unique motivational and problem solving workshop.

Freelance Foodie Writer - I love story-telling and write a weekly newsletter and column for the Eagle Times, Argus Champion, and Connecticut Valley Spectator, two of New Hampshire’s favorite weekly newspapers. And my essays appear from time to time in The Heart of New England e-newsletter and website. I tell universal stories about family and friendship, chronicle celebrations as well as everyday life and share seasonal recipes.

Thank you for a wonderful evening.  The food was terrific and very elegant.  It was so nice to celebrate with dinner in a home instead of a restaurant.

I love your column!

I thank you so very much for your newsletter with it's warm feeling for family and food ...

I love to read your stories along side your recipes. We have been eating the rhubarb and asparagus ..... it's been wonderful.
