The Happy Chef

 Happy 2020!  9 years ago I started this blog.  In fact, I remember sitting in the office speaking to the HEAD of the English Department about it.  He was my boss and a wonderful man, and had the bright idea that I should simply use the word happy when referring to my blog.   Since then I have become an educator, had a stint working at Sur La Table as a chef, and worked on my own physical health using Beachbody (the round stomach is quite a bit less round; although I could never claim to have abs- yet!), and continued to develop my own culinary skills.  My focus is a bit more geared towards food that fuels my body now (it is the latest trend- one that will extend our lifetime if we do it right I imagine!), but I am more than excited to continue posting and pick up where I left off 9 years ago.  I think I may have been quite a bit wittier then, but if you will muddle through my confessions and recipies (as cliche as that sounds) follow along?!
