Her love of Southwestern and Mexican food began as a child, spending time with her Aunt and Uncle who managed a major government program in Mexico. Also, her maternal Grandmother, who was a graduate Home Economist, helped the native women of New Mexico in the early 1900's to create recipes from their culinary traditions; where prior no recipes existed. This legacy, along with being a third generation Home Economist and continuous love of cooking led to her establishing these businesses. |
