Chef Lynn Crawford


I sometimes get asked which chef do I get my inspiration from.


Chef Lynn Crawford Canadian Born
Executive Chef of the Four Season's
Restaurant Makeover
Pitchin' In

I've been a long time watcher of the FOOD NETWORK! It's on 24/7 in our home. I have wonderful memories of watching it with each of my children and watching as they too get excited for the dishes that are being prepared by the various chefs. My husband has also been found watching a couple of episodes with me too.

As with any show on tv, I have my favorites on food network, but Chef Lynn is...well, I guess you can say my mentor in the industry, even though she has no idea that through her career, she has been my mentor. :)

I remember clearly the episode that I feel in love with her love, style of food and appreciation for food. It was an episode of A Restaurant Makeover. She was revamping the current restaurant's menu, and working with someone who didn't really have the "schooling" behind being a chef, but clearly had a love for food and of food. Helping them see that taking fresh ingredients and a passion for them, can help you create that amazing dish. "I will take anyone who has a true passion and love for food and teach them"...ever since I heard her share that statement, I secretly wish she'd somehow find me and take me under her wing. Wow!!! Learning from her would be a dream come true!

She, as I do, believes that "the creation of a delicious meal requires passion and quality ingredients...". Local farmer's markets is where she has built an appreciation for the difference that fresh makes. Walking the farmer's markets is where my creativity takes place.

Her philosophy "food needs to be celebrated and shared with family and friends...not kept to oneself but shared amongst many as a means of enjoyment".

I truly believe that food has a way of bringing people together. Growing up I had the best conversations with my family and friends around the dinner table.
And that's where it all begins!
Sharing, laughing and enjoying one's company around great food!!

Thanks Chef Lynn for being such an inspiration in the way I view, share, create, and love food :)

Until we cook again :)

In Celebration of my Newest Service - GIVEAWAY!!

To all of my followers, I just want to say thank you!!

My business mostly thrives on word of mouth, which is why I would like to draw for a GIVEAWAY. Yes...another Giveaway. I love giveaways. :)

My Personal Chef Service is a fairly new Service, so therefore I would like as many people to find out about it. Especially through word of mouth.

Before I tell you what I am drawing for, I'll explain what you have to do to get your name in the draw.

It may get a bit confusing, especially for those who already officially follow me on my blog.
Here goes:

If you already follow me, all you have to do is recommend my blog to someone who doesn't and have them follow my blog. Leave me a comment of the person's name you are recommending my blog to, and all they have to do is follow me, and your name along with their name (if they officially follow) will be put in the draw.

If you are new to the blog, and want your name in the draw, all you have to do is officially follow. So easy!

Now...here's where it may get confusing. Word of mouth really is the best form of advertising and this is where everyone in the draw comes in. If you post a blog, or post on your wall on facebook about the company's new service (Personal Chef, Menu Planning, and Kitchen/Pantry Organizing) then your name goes in the draw again. So in total, you can have your name put in twice for the draw. Again, let me know that you've done this by leaving me a comment on this blog post.

Hope that makes sense.

Okay...What is the draw for?
It's a big one this time!!

2 Family Meals Prepared for your freezer, consultation and menu-planning session, and some tips on organizing your kitchen so it makes sense. Along with the recipe's in a folder of the freezer meal I've specifically prepared for you and your family.

There it is, the dets on the draw.
Help me spread the word...
