I love to shop at Trader Joe's. It is so much fun to browse and see all sorts of new products. Plus they give out food samples everyday of something new to try. Everyone dresses in Hawaiian shirts too. It is just fun.

I would have to say Hot Dogs. My father will go out of his way to have a great hot dog. He even went on a vacation with all the hot dog places he wanted to eat at on a map. I think he ate at 7 different places and kept the menus from them all. He loves hot dogs.

For me, it's my husband. He's a whiz in the kitchen and I have learned so much from him. Best of all, he's a mentor that's readily available!

My mom at first. She would let me make mini pies in pyrex cups when she made full pies so I could make and eat my own.

My mentors were first, my Mother, and recently, Bobby Flay. He gives a good example of tweaking a recipe every Throwdown!
